Friend, when I face a mountain high, I look to The Lord up in the sky, <br />God changes mountains into hills, as God changes things as He wills. <br />Friend, even if my path seems long, I know that I am where I belong, <br />For God has planned my path for me, it’s one that ends up in Eternity. <br />His will for me in this present life, is to follow the steps of Jesus Christ. <br /> <br />And our Lord’s earthly path my friend, had indeed a very tragic end, <br />“Not my will” He said that day, as His Father’s will was the only way. <br />This is God’s will for us indeed, as we must follow The Savior’s lead. <br />As I am crucified with Christ you see, I don’t live, but He lives in me. <br />Friend, now my life I live for God, this in each and every day I trod. <br /> <br />When I pass through waters friend, I remember Christ’s tragic end, <br />When the waters get too deep, it was on that cross He died for me. <br />And when they become a flood, it was for me that He spilt His Blood. <br />It’s the power from His sacrifice, that sustains me in the waters of life, <br />So that in my life men may see, that it’s The Lord Jesus living in me. <br /> <br />For my friend God’s will in my life, is to be for Him a living sacrifice. <br />Christ gives me the power to fulfill, not mine, but God’s Eternal Will. <br />So when I face a river or a hill, I know that it’s God’s Sovereign Will. <br />Soon Christ will come for His own, to take us to our Heavenly Home, <br />Safe at last with The Lord we’ll be, to be with Christ through Eternity. <br /> <br />(Copyright ©02/2005)<br /><br />Bob Gotti<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/his-will-not-mine/
