Walking the Path

We are trained to deny the truth

And taught to build up walls

We are told to steer clear of love

Because no one survives the fall

We are conditioned to look out for number one

And hear that kindness makes us weak

People stop waving to passing strangers

And lovers forget to speak

But a single hand can break it all

Faith alone can set us free

Free from chains that ties us down

And open to all we see

What happens when patience prevails

And purity is no longer scorned

What happens when those walls come down

And you reveal a heart that�s torn

What�s the result of ending fear

And opening yourself to be hurt

Is your heart that�s burned dry at the stake

Is it with disaster that we flirt

Or does one stop the pattern

Is one truly sincere

Does one even have what it takes

To understand all that they hear

God will decide this unknown fate

I have given up my control

In the end I�ll cry of heartache

Or find He�s made me whole
