"Trials"

I’ve made mistakes, as every human has
That at the time seemed oh so very great
Yet fortunate for me, there was a plan
Laid down in days of old for me by Fate

And I can still recall the sense of dread
That plagued my soul in times of worried doubt
When life seemed to have closed and barred its gate
To leave my bleeding heart alone without

But each and every time I’d given up
Somehow another chance would come my way
Restoring all the faith my heart had lost
And helping me to face another day

I’ve weathered each and every storm that’s come
Though some have proven harder than the rest
And, fragile though it is, my hope shines on
To light my way through life at Fate’s behest

AMdG
