The lessons of my life, are mine alone
They belong to me
The road ahead is unknown
The mountains, hills and cliffs are of course, before me
My head is held up high
The Lord lifts me
I am not afraid
They belong to me
Precious, priceless
Only love can compare
Let nothing come between us oh Lord
The voices, the faces, the words
Let me tongue be guided by the rudder of your word
Today, I feel my feet
I know the peace that be mine
I give it to no one
Let the fire burn
Let the smoke of my flesh rise
Let the sting bring to life the lesson
Keep my tongue still
As my truth be known
Let time take its place
Let the seasons work at their pace
As the sinew grows
Let my inner man rise and take shape
Let my eyes be filled with understanding
Let my ears hear the words of the spirit as the world nudges and pushes
Yes, I do not deny the errors of my way
The inevitable part of my humaness
But let not the very thing that connects me to victory be taken
Let not love be taken
Let not the error of denying love take me from me
From place to place, my home is always in my heart
My lessons are mine and mine alone
They belong to me
I am at peace with these
Let strength, peace and love hold me close
Always Lord
I love You.
