Proverbs 4:18-19   “The path of the righteous is like the morning sun,
    shining ever brighter till the full light of day.
But the way of the wicked is like deep darkness”
    they do not know what makes them stumble.”

From darkest places we oft rise, to reach the morning sun,

We never seem to realize, how far from light we’ve run,

Our course has been established by our great and awesome God,

Yet sometimes we forget that fact, and through the muck we trod.\

When light leads us away from sin, the darkness disappears,

Our path becomes apparent then, as we race through our fears,

He guides us and directs our way, preventing every fall,

He knows what we will face each day, He hears our every call.

He wants to be there to the end, to reach the finish line,

He knows our every inner thought, we are His great design,

When His bright light in us does shine our race will soon be won,

He’s paid for every sin of ours, with His own precious Son.

No matter where we go in life, when we take Jesus’ hand,

We’re sure to find the perfect way to traverse any land,

The race will still be filled with bumps, but He will lead us through,

Just place your life within His hands, His light will shine through you.
