From this day on..
I'll let you lead the way..
Be not my deciever..and lead me astray..
This leap of faith I give to you..
My loving benefactor..
I'll follow you in love..
From the beginning to the end..
This trust I give to you my friend..
From my days first breath..
To my last exhale of death..
Threw each and every test..
Forsaking all the rest..
As long as you can see me..and all my faint lines in between..
From all the reaches of my heart..
Every broken part..
This soul in disarray..
So many times betrayed..
I promise from this day..to let you lead the way..
I'll follow you threw our tomorrows..
Eluding regretts and sorrow..
Teach me to forgive..
Show me how to live..
Waistlands in my past..
Faith that didn't last..
Scriptures in the book..
So often overlooked..
A daunting task you undertake..
Took my thirsty heart..
Replenished it again..
Washed away my sins..
Found the beauty held within..
To these ends..
I am ready to begin..
I'll follow you in love..
Completely..all the way..
Each and every day..
From this moment on..
Forever and beyond..
