An indelible mark
I was touched by Him
I turned to face the storm
And I saw Him grin
He knew me well
He had watched my steps
Persuaded my path
With no regrets
A motorway called life
I sit at the wheel
Hairpin corners
Nerves of steel
I put down my foot
And stare straight ahead
I forged my way
My fingers have bled
In cruise control
Or hand at the helm
Surveying a route
Did not overwhelm
My mind made up
Inner engine roars
Inhibitions crumble
Ambition soars
We seek a way
To bring about our best
Scrimping and toiling
He will attest
Self-righteous our enemies
Ignoble fools
Carrying contempt
Opportunity rules
I have crossed that threshold
Where man worries not
Vanity shatters
Attitudes rot
He guides to our end
Our limits undefined
Belief in oneself
Awake in the blind
