LIFE

Life is like a wild ride,
With many twists and turns.
No one knows what's on the other side,
Or the lessons that will be learned.

It brings constant surprises,
Both pleasant and bad.
Which come in many disguises,
And drive us crazy or make us glad.

Life is a long endurance race.
Only the perseverant make it through.
But God with all His love and grace,
Knows how much you can do.

He'll help you keep on running when you feel like giving up,
He'll support you when you feel like you've had enough.
He'll give you the strength and power to reach the finish line,
He'll be the one who's there for you and love you for all time.

God knows how much you can handle.
He knows how much you can bear.
He'll relight the flame in your candle,
And show you constant care.

So don't give up, don't quit,
Use all your talents, use all your wit.
Don't lose faith, don't lose heart.
Keep on going, do your part.
Run the race 'til the very end.
You never know what's around the bend.

God has a plan for each of us,
So place in Him your trust.
He has a bright future for you and me,
He wants to bless you and prosper us so greatly.
No matter how many problems you encounter,
God will be there to care and comfort.

So when you're weary, tired, and worn,
You're distressed and your heart's been torn.
Remember God's love and what His son did for you,
How He's constantly proven faithful and true.
So my friends, no matter how hard,
Keep on running, and you'll receive your reward.
