Show me the light and I'll lead the way



Show me the light and I will lead the way, follow me when you're
astray. God is not going to come to you. You will have to
confront him first, thought you knew?

You would be amazed at the miracles that he accomplishes, but
you as his child, must ask for his assistant. Then when he is
good and ready, he'll fulfill your wishes as fast as he can.

So, always have faith, dignity and pride, have confidence in God
by and by. Live your life to the fullest; you never know when
God has decided that you have finished your mission! But once
he decides, and you go home, it will be the most beautiful place
we have ever known. And though we may not know each other,
when we get there. God will never forget his children.
