THE SPIRITUAL CAR WRECK
It happened so unexpected, it was such a beautiful day
Walking upright before God, in all I would do or say
Knowing God would lead me, only for what was best
Trusting Him to keep my soul, through every given test
Had my little agenda planned, of things I needed to do
Not concerned at all you see, that I might not make it through
Riding along peaceful on my journey, just happy with Jesus alone
Cruising through my ministry, with a view of "Going HOME"
Suddenly a powerful bump from behind, with a "CRASH", can't forget the sound
Thrown off balance, what's happening?,spiritual death lurking all around
But Suddenly, here's another test, even worse than the one before
It's caved in and broken the glass, on all my spiritual doors
I've been hit! I'm upside down! Dear Jesus, Almost more than I can stand
But Jesus I trust you, and my soul is in your hands
You called back to my remembrance, Your Words You promised me
You never leave or forsake Your child, so I believe what I can't see
My soul is spinning through the air, scriptures of glass are flying by
Lord, this nightmare test won't go away, no matter how hard I try
"There is much more for you to do, I know you trust Me, child
Know that this too shall pass, and it will only last awhile"
When the test was over, I was spiritually black and blue
Dry bones had been broken, my soul was stitched up with bruises too
Much had been lost through this test, but much was gained as well
A closer relationship with God, and that's what I'm here to tell
So when the Lord decides to allow tests to come upon you
Know that He is there, and He will surely see you through
God has plans and purpose, for your life to be as it should
Allow the Lord to have His way, He's working it out for your good
