My homeland is not of the world

         I will call your name, Lord

You were always there for me
You gave me the will and strength to proceed
Even when I turned my back to thee
Lord, you were always there for me

You have guided me through my life
You have guided me away from the strife
You have always given me advice
Yet you have allowed me to roll my dice.

Snake eyes the dice has rolled
Now here I am growing old
Yet there you are, all the same
Waiting for me to call your name

Sorry, I'm not great with grammer, so I don't know what should be a comma, and what should be a period. But anyhow, what'd you think?

Encarta, I don't study the punctuation very closely if the message keeps my attention and your message is very good. I think you've done an admirable job on this. Enjoyed. Cheryl

Encarta, thanks. I like this. A lot!

And I like your well chosen metaphor from 'shootin craps'.

Yet you have allowed me to roll my dice.
Snake eyes the dice has rolled

For anyone who doesn't know about shootin' craps, it is a gambling dice game where when both dice come up as one, the shooter loses.

Thanks for sharing,

Newell

Without the experiance of love where would we be? We would have no memories to cherish.
With love it brings hurt with hurt bittersweet memories.
