CROSSROADS

Each day you rise from sleeping
Your choices manifest .
Crossroads are before you
You know not which is best .

No guides but those created
By you in bygone days
To show you which road taken
Shall lead to better days .

Some souls are filled with answers ;
Still others , none at all .
Someone on some roads you take
May catch you when you fall .

Some roads are only darkness .
Others filled with light .
No matter which you've taken ,
No guarentee it's right .

But this is life's adventure .
Don't shudder at this choice .
God gives you all the answers .
Just hear His loving voice .

So , when you rise tomorrow ,
Your destiny's not cast .
Only changed by those you made
Far in your distant past .

Worry not of roads you took
For some will take you back .
The fear that makes you wonder
Will leave when on God's track .

When you round the final turn
Of roads you chose before ,
That road takes you home again
Or ends outside His door .
