BLIND SIGNS

BLIND SIGNS

Road closed, dead end

Signs I did not see.

In my pride and arrogance

Those signs were not for me

I crashed on through the warnings --

Surprise there's nothing there.

My soul just plummeted into a pit of dark despair.

Now there's no place to go, but up

How could I fall so far?

I did not heed the warning voice

Of conviction in my ear,

"Child look out, that road is closed. Stop right where you are. You can run and you can hide, but you won't get too far. You're never out of reach for Me, I'll catch you when you fall, Cause I'm the biggest God there is -- My Name is Lord of All."

Lord, You picked me up so very many times

Too scared to stand all by myself, I never saw You there. The life

that I was living brought so many close to You, they prayed for my

soul left and right, and Lord, You carried me through.

Dead end, Road closed.

Why did I grab the wheel? I tried to control my life and mis'rably

failed.

I crashed on through the warnings, I refused to yield. But now I

give myself to You, my heart and mind revealed.

You can see my essence

You know my every thought

You are the God I adore

I am the soul You bought.

What a precious God You are! What a Holy Lord!

I cannot lift Your Name enough nor thoroughly know Your Word.

Study hard and study long, Work my way on through

Till I reach my place of rest, Where I can worship You!
