Unknown

I long to see so far ahead
I'm sure I need the assurance
But the path is full of such sharp corners
The foggy, blurred  road in the distance

So I shirk and hide and wait; I think
it will save my way from harm
But soon I see through the misty view
I must go on and on

For I was made for this, for risk
To discover all that is within
To find the treasure in the journey
To  not lose in this life but win

I hesitate and search for one to come along
But none go this way today
I strive to win and yet  dread going wrong
The struggle brings delay

But the way stays, beckoning onward
Steady, fixed, calling me to soar
I have been here times before
And found the strength when I needed more.

It is faith that propels me forth again
the mountains and trials shall have to give
I am meant to not see past the bend
and trust in the one who made me live.

Fear will be my conquered foe
In trust I push into unseen ways
It is time to rise from ashes
And run my path into future days.
