Each time that God said, “go”; I wondered what legacy I left behind. When people think of me, will they see God. I traveled far. Although, I am weary of travel, starting over; my heart knows I must go again. So many things to get down. Many questions with no answer. Yet, I know God goes before and has a perfect plan etched out by His Hand of Love.
I’d Traveled Far
I’d traveled far across this land
Unto the eastern shore
Uncertain of what God had planned
Alone, I stood once more
I’d heard Him bid for me to go
Twas all I needed know
And then I saw, as time did pass
His plan begin unfold
I had been placed within His class
To learn His love untold
And as I saw His Glory Shine
His joy, His love now mine
I met dear friends along this way
That helped me as I grew
And others stumbling blocks did lay
God used to guide me too
That I might see His Grace His might
With Christ my guiding light
And Now I know that I must go
To leave these all behind
I wonder if my life did show
A Glimpse of God’s dear mind
And did my life His Glory shine
Within this mirror of mine
Oh, Lord I have this one request
When memories of me rise
That they might see how I was blessed
Your Grace my greatest prize
You took this broken, selfish heart
To fill Your Love Impart
So, can you Lord, use all I’ve done
Though blend of good and bad
To point them Lord to your dear son
His Grace, His Love did clad
A simple person such as I
With righteousness on High
When God Says Go
For ye shall not go out with haste, nor go by flight: for the Lord will go before you; and the God of Israel will be your reward. Isaiah 52:12
Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Isaiah 41:10
