“The Road”
The road I’ve walked has been a winding road. That had many turns and bends
I’ve walked the road with laughter and song and I’ve walked with road with fear.
Sometimes I walked with friends, Sometimes I walked alone. In all the years that I’ve walked
My destination was unknown.
Now in my older years, as I look back on my life.
I thank the Lord for my blessings, and forgiveness of my sins
I pray for family and friends and those who went before me
In the walk of my lifetime, I’ve stumbled now and then
They picked me up and held me, go with God my friends
The walk that we’re all upon, is the journey of the soul
It’s the walk that never ends, through all confusion and doubt
It’s the walk that never ends
