There are times I wonder, can I make it through this day?

Then I know for sure I can, for God shows me the way.

 

The best day of my life, is what today is going to be

If you wonder how I know, it's because God holds the key.

 

I may stumble or I may fall as day turns into night

But then I look towards the sky and see the shining light.

 

I'll hold my head high; I'll have a happy heart

Just so long as God and I are not very far apart.

 

The hardships in my life, have made me stronger still

It's because within my heart, I believe it is God's will.

 

I marvel at God's simple gifts he gives to me and you

The sun, the clouds, the flowers...  glistening with morning dew.

 

Today I shall not worry of things that I have not,

Instead I'll say a prayer of thanks, to God, for what I've got.

 

Today I'll try to cheer a friend, which is feeling down,

I'll ask God to place a smile, where once there was a frown.

 

I'll also remember, that worry is a waste of time,

Because my faith in God ensures, everything will be just fine.

 

Before I go to bed tonight, I'll gaze at the heavens above,

For where else could I possibly look to find eternal love?
