I Tripped, I Leapt.

I Tripped, I Leapt.
I took a chance I made a dash
But was my ultimate Goal met?

I try to stop
But then I fall
Is this just a bad day, or my unlucky lot?

I’m flat on the ground
What’s the point?
Can any solution be found?

The ways of the heart I cannot understand
A Plane called emotions,
Is one I cannot land.

A beast I cannot tame
Is one called Self.
All of this quickly came.

O, My Father I do not know the way.
Help me to stay and stand.
Give me the strength and teach me to stand.

Help me to remember my beliefs,
As I start a new page,
And turn over a new leaf.

Be near me Father when I fall
And teach me to hear
Your still small voice when You call.

Thank you for your unconditional love,
Your plan for my life,
And Your spirit that is with me like a dove.
