"Where shall it take me?
And who will be there to greet me when I arrive?
And if I stray, by chance, from the familiar path,
who will point the way back,
who will set things right?"
"I shall set things right," sayeth the Lord,
and plant your feet upon the holy path,
and wipe your tears when you stumble,
and keep your heart beating
"I shall set things right," sayeth the Lord,
and plant your feet upon the holy path,
and wipe your tears when you stumble,
and keep your heart beating
when you are afraid.
For in all things I am with you,
part of you, forever,
And I shall walk with you all the days
For in all things I am with you,
part of you, forever,
And I shall walk with you all the days
of your life, and be with you always,
until the end of time."
This seems like another paradox--the extraordinary, exquisite promise and yet the trauma borne by so many....perhaps only a depth of faith and trust in the promise can impel one to continue on the path.
