What Do You Do I Ask

(5/4/12) What do you do when you feel all hope is gone And hanging by a thread you linger on. What do you do when you take three steps forward And eight steps back, and in life you're always under attack. What do you do when you have door after door Slam in your face, and to hide - there is no place. What do you do when your loved ones have lost faith in you And you don't know what to do. What do you do when you pray every day And the answers don't come your way. Is this really the time to give up hope When all your life you learned to cope. Your dreams don't come when you want And may never come at all And to the ground they may fall. Your dreams may not be what GOD has intended But in your life, your dreams may be ended. There may be another path that he wants you to travel And his answers will all unravel. Your life is not lived just for yourself You must touch everyone else. We are surrounded by millions of people And each life touching another And giving hope to so many others. We can not see what he has in store But we live with faith as we open the new door. The door may be something that we don't expect And it will make our lives better yet. So open the door and let that radiating light shine through For this is the light and path that belongs to you.
