O Lord make us to lie down
in the green pastures of
thy love and lead us beside
the still waters of thy grace
*****************************
*****************************
Before we are born
a trail for our life has been laid
the trail is ours and ours alone.
Sometimes the trail is easy to follow
sometimes the way is unknown.
It is so easy to step in the shadows
in the shadows we can't find our way.
************************************
************************************
Our trail of life has high mountains
that are so rough and hard to climb.
And there are beautiful valleys we go through
to our life are peaceful gentle and kind.
We must find the courage to climb those mountains
so we can walk through the beautiful valley below
****************************************
****************************************
There are places in the trail of life
when heartache and pain are
almost to heard to bare.
We are lost and so afraid our
trail of life has taken us no where.
The way is still there we just
have to clear it as we go.
**************************************
**************************************
If we can stop and rest a while
and get our heart and mind in order.
our spirit will take us through the shadows
up those mountains and through the valleys.
And give us courage and strength to get through
the bad places with our life forever strong
**************************************
**************************************
If we thank God for the good places
and ask his help through the bad places.
Only then will we find a lot of rest stops
and sunshine places on our trail of life.
