my walk through Hell



As I took my walk through Hell
I saw many familiar faces
with sad expressions. great despair
had we all fallen far from grace?

I called out but no one stopped
they moved this silent march along
tears fell freely  from their eyes
I refused to join this dismal throng

I yelled " MY father is here now
it's very dark but, he came for me
I've going to walk along with him
 come  with us you'll surely see

I've chosen walks with rugged terrain
I, ve often tripped and fallen down
and when I was sure I'd lost my way
I wasn't lost he was still around

come with us there's nothing here
just this empty path, devoid of love
come  enjoy the refreshing air
dwell up there in =n joy and love
