I awaken each day

Wondering if I’ll make it through

I see my trials in plain view

I endure the pain

To see what I’ll gain

I often cry

As I wonder why

Then as I look in the mirror

It all becomes clearer

There is a quiet place

Where I can meet God face to face

He’s one of a kind

He eases my mind

I face more than one realizes

I’m always greeted with surprises

I stumble and fall

But God hears me when I call

I dodge life’s darts along the way

I see the price I have to pay

Whenever I reach a breaking point

All I have to do is point

To a quiet place

Where God comforts me

There’s no place I’d rather be

With one touch of His hand

I know where I stand

My heart is pure

That’s for sure

As I run my race

I’ll always think of a quiet place
