Life is a journey of trials we must face each day
Yet God opens our hearts and minds to what he has to say
He helps us to wake in the early morn
A chance for us to kneel unto him and pray
He loves the praise of a freshly awakened heart
And therefore blesses our day
Life is a journey of temptations
Things that would normally be impossible for mankind
But God’s word promises we have the power
To overcome and leave them all behind
Life is filled with sorrow loss and pain
Yet if we remain steadfast and only believe
We have heaven with Jesus to gain
Let not the trials and lessons of life bring you down
Yet stay prayed up and ready
Causing Satan with all of his tricks
To look like a clown!
Jesus is attentive to the needs of all
Who upon his dear name in prayer do call
He will guide us through dark times as well as light
So praise him every moment as much as you can
For he and he alone causes the sun to shine
Within our lives-ever so bright!
