Sometimes we cry

Without knowing why

Sometimes we get turned around

Before God puts us on solid ground

Sometimes we grapple with fear

Before we see God standing near

Sometimes we search for purpose

Before it rises to the surface

Sometimes we feel weak

Before we hear God speak

Sometimes we grapple with doubt

Before God works things out

Sometimes we learn to stand

While holding God’s hand

Sometimes we search for peace

Our hearts won’t release

Sometimes we build our dreams

Until we burst at the seams

Sometimes we see life lessons learned

All the stripes we’ve earned

Sometimes we see what we treasure

Beyond all measure

Sometimes we see what’s real

Too difficult to conceal

Sometimes we run our race

In a safe and secure place

Sometimes we face our naysayers

While saying our prayers

Sometimes we give as good as we get

With very little regret

Sometimes faith makes us see

What’s truly meant to be

Sometimes we smile

Even laugh a little while

Sometimes we see blessings granted

As we water the seeds we planted

Sometimes we see our guiding light

Both day and night

Sometimes we embrace the journey

Meant just for us only

Before God sets our path

Without unleashing His wrath

Sometimes we find something pure

We feel safe and secure

Sometimes we begin again

Cause faith helps us win

Sometimes
