(Courageous spirit; determination) When I got tired of life; I asked; why? Life was not mine to give It's not mine to take, It is a gift; Given to me by grace. If tonight I find a reason to hate my life In the morning remind me of the gift of love, The same I found on the cross. Shame will be my name, If Life is given by grace; I refuse to live, 'Cos of my temporal pain. I'll ignore the day That brought me shame And look forward to the day That glory awaits. So if I ever get tired of life; I'll repeat to myself this line, "The Lord is my Shepherd" I'll remember To live one breath at a time. Till my present becomes my past One I'll look back to with a grateful heart. If I ever get tired of life, I'll take a deep breath And repent of my pride That made me believe it’s all about me. I'll take a long walk in my street Taking account of people's countenance, Seeing we all carry a burden; Some heavier or weighty, it's never light. I'll remind myself these lines; Come to me, All you who are weary and burdened. ∞ ∞ ∞
