At the Crossroad

Standing on this road I feel so lost,
The signboard filled with aimless arrow,
"Where art thou, Lord, who died on the cross?
O' grant me strength to face tomorrow!"

This road is gloomy covered with fear,
Grey clouds of doubts descending within,
"I'm terrified, Lord, I need you right here
Tell me, Father, where do I begin?"

The greenery of faith seeps away,
Thorns of uncertainties sting the soul,
"O' streghthen me, Lord, make me your clay,
Come, restore my faith and make me whole!"

I look around but see nothing,
Total darkness consumes my being,
Then from the stillness I hear something,
In the gentle wind, he is speaking.

"The stars above are your guiding light,
The sand beneath is my unfailing might,
Abram lived by faith and not by sight,
Trust that I am with you in your plight!"

"Take a step forward to the unknown
Don't you know you are not on your own?
Remember, your sins have been atoned
Henceforth, you shall never be alone!"

"Don't be afraid, my child, I am here,
Daylight will come and darkness will clear,
The roads are rough but please persevere,
My time will come for the end is near!"

I see the sun rising from afar,
The warmth of grace caresses my face,
A faithful and loving God you are,
To you Lord I will run and embrace.

He holds my hand ever so tighly,
His palm covers mine with tender care,
The splendor of his smile shines brightly,
All my sin and shame He chose to bear.

Now I stand at the crossroad of life,
Not knowing what lies ahead of me,
Be like Abram I will surely strive,
To have faith in Him who sets me free.
