It's Your Life..

Life is like a song,so sing it loud and clear..
As we move along..What's important, we keep near..
Each turn we take is another chance and opens up another door..
It's up to us if we get up and dance or choose to sit on the floor..

As we grow older, we start to see..
The world is on our shoulder..
And reality is telling us, we are not who we want to be..

Each day becomes an effort..
And we begin sleeping through our lives..
There is so much pain and hurt..
Everyone stabbing each other with knives..

All others become a bad influence..
Your life is now at stake..
The key to true repentance..
Is what we choose to take..

You see, life is what we make it..
Nothing more and nothing less..
Trust is strong but once you break it..
Everything becomes a mess..

But what good does it do for us to cry..
What good does it do to whine..
Everybody lives and everybody has to die..
We all go through pain and have a set amount of time..

All that we can do, is look to the future with hope..
That someday things will all make sense..
As time goes on, we will find ways to cope..
And the pain will no longer seem so intense..

We'll put on a smile, sing life's song with love..
Hang around for a while..
And seek God's grace from up above..

Do your best to make sense..
Of everything you're given..
If nothing works out...
Hold your head up high, keep living..

There will be times when pain is all we feel..
The clouds are all we can see..
It will seem to be too much for us to deal..
But in the end, God will set us free..

Open up your mind and just live for today..
Each of us, our paths will wind..
As we search and find our way..

Near the end of our life, as we walk through our last days..
We'll back look at the things, that helped light our way..

We'll see all the mistakes we made..
And the people who were there..
The things that may have caused our smiles to fade..
And the smell of the cool, fresh air..

You'll think about the people you'll never know by name..
And all of the joy you felt..
When someone kept you from going insane..
And helped you to live with the hand you've been dealt..

You'll remember the sun that always came out..
After the passing of the rain..
It wouldn't allow you to doubt..
That the joy was worth the pain ..
