TALKING TO THE LORD ABOUT CHOICES
Lord, you don’t make it easy! There are so many ways to go And a dozen reasons for each way
Life’s like a game of snakes and ladders Because if I make the wrong choice I might end up back where I started
Then again, if I climb the ladder of success Am I just showing off, joining the rat race?
Some of my friends seem so sure Of where they’re going
Their confidence scares me They climb the nearest ladder And never seem to see the snakes
But Lord, life isn’t a game This is my life, my choice
No one can make this choice for me And I will have to live with consequences
Just stay with me Lord, whatever happens Make sense of what doesn’t work out
Just as you turned the cross Into resurrection and new life AMEN
