Pebble

Where and I going?

I don’t know where I am going?

Who will go with me?

I am frightened

I need settling

Where am I going?

I can not see straight

My vision skewed

Humanity warps my thoughts

Oh who will walk with me?

Who will hold me close?

God, I know it’s You

You will come with me

I will go with You

Though I know not where

I will dare myself

To see a new world, a new life

Wrapped in love and peace

I will dare myself

To reach beyond human means

The pebble is in my shoe

It is in myself

And it taunts me

Though its criticism

Attempts to hold me down

I will rise

I will rise

You hold me close

You call my name

Here I am

I will go

I will go

The pebble in my shoe

I know it well

It stretches me

It pushes me

For my humanity 

Is this pebble true

Yet I will walk

Watch me walk

I will take Your hand

I will see my soul

I will act in love

I will rise above

Humanity, will taunt and prod

It can rub me raw

Take my piece of mind

Attempt to rattle me

But my heart is strong

Your voice is loud

Your touch so soft

This pebble in my shoe

Will help me see

For I believe, yes truth I know

My heart it leads

Leads me home

I can walk

I can walk

Clearly now

This pebble is humanity

And I know

Yes I know

This humanity

It does not weaken me

It strengthens me

For I learn each day

Of Your presence

Of Your love so strong

I am moved to act

Act with peace and hope

Act in faith and love

Every move I make

Every turn I take

There You are offering You

And so I dare to walk

I dare to go

I need not know where

I question not why

My faith it leads

Lead the path of love

Leads to You

Leads me toward love

Rising above 

The pebble runs not

I can walk

I can walk

Faith my strength

I see You

I feel Your love

And I will walk

I will walk 

I have found my home

You take my hand

I settled now

For you are by my side

By my side

Yes you are by my side

And I am home
