The Calmness of the Lake

The path I traveled many times before

Today I walked alone as rain drops fall
Guided by the Spirit taken to this place
Standing on a bridge rain upon my face

Feeling in the presence of the Lord

I understood the meaning of it all
My eyes opened for Heaven's sake
As the waters roared into the lake

The raging river streaming high to low 

Channeling downstream the waters flow
Avoiding all the barriers firmly in place
Final destination the calmness of the lake

This is life, the path leading us home 

The path traveled many times before
I understood the meaning of it all
Standing on a bridge with my Lord

My eyes opened to the meaning of life
Answers to questions of reasons why
This is the path leading us to the place
Destination..."The Calmness of the Lake"
