I see sticks and stones

As they cover my bones

I learn about life in the making

Every dream is for the taking

God leads the way

As I travel during the day

I see my purpose

As it rises to the surface

It’s something I can’t ignore

And I’m filled to the core

I see sticks and stones

And not a lot of clones

I learn several lessons

As I make my confessions

What’s for me is for me

I’m the best I can be

One things is true

God has carried me through

The journey is mine

So everything is fine

I see sticks and stones

As they cover my bones

I take one step at a time

While still in my prime

I stumble here and there

But God offers tender loving care

I’m in a good place

Due to God’s grace

And I revel in peace

That I’ll never release

I have no regrets

Life is as good as it gets

Most of all

I’ll answer every call

As I cover my bones

With sticks and stones
