Too
often I get caught up
focused
upon myself
finding
my way difficult
wondering
which way to turn
It is
far too easy
to go
with the crowd
huddle
masses, tumult
leading
to death
Moving
in the way of a fallen world
hustling
here and there
no
peace within us
no
peace anywhere
God
offers us that peace
conformed
to His path
through
the valley of shadows
to
the field, the waters, everywhere
journeying
into the light of a bright future
walking
with the Good Shepherd
leading
from glory to glory
a way
out of this desert
We
only have to turn to Him
to
repent of our sins
only
to stay true to Him
submitting
our will to His
