I will face with grace
whatever the winds may blow my way
for I am no longer afraid to let go of a yesterday
that got up and went quite some time ago

and while I'm at it
I just wanted you to know
that I'm not scared
the way I was back then
when I allowed you
to bring me to my knees

I am not her
no longer is she, me

That was then
but stronger I have grown
and I'll be just fine
as with faith, I embrace coming days unknown

and I'll do my best
to face with grace
whatever the winds may blow my way.

after a fall I get back up,
move on 'cause the past is the past and theres no tomorrow if remaining in still waters while the river flows on ~dsmith
