Choici

Deep down I know every day's a blessing, 

Every second, a miracle, a breath I didn't earn,

Truthfully, it doesn't always feel like that, a tough lesson to learn,

Life's so short, a flash, then it's gone in the breeze,

A deep mystery, knocking you down to your knees.

So don't ever believe a soul who says they have it clocked,

They have all the answers packaged, every single door unlocked.

I know what I believe in, where my hope takes flight,

A quiet conviction burning steady, holding me tight,

Some mornings, I'm still lost in a haze,

Like a little kid wandering through life's confusing maze,

The weight of the unknown, the questions in my head,

If I didn't believe in God, I swear every dream would be dead,

No meaning, no reason, just a struggle to survive,

No light in the darkness, no feeling truly alive.

Because if the Creator wasn't real, what's the purpose of it all?

Just dust in the wind, destined for a lonely fall,

I'm not pushingmy truth on you, never tried to make you convert,

But somebody showed me the way, pulled me from the hurt,

Inspired my spirit, gave me vision to see,

That there's more to this journey than just what's in front of me,

Life is full of choices, paths laid out to embrace,

You can pick what you wish, and run your own race.

Me? I choose to believe in God, with a thankful heart and mind,

And with that decision, true solace I find.

With that decision, true peace is defined.

Every day's a blessing, every second divine.
