Closer Than You Know

As I walk along... I see
Nothing is calm
I feel the world for me is moving on
Once it all was lost
It cannot be found
When all the people here are
Running around.

Don't lose hope
Don't lose faith
In where you go
The next step you take
Is closer than you know

As I walk along... I say
Will I understand?
Down for all the days
The upper hand
It once was hard to think
That nothing is calm
Now I know which way I'm going to go
I'm moving on.

Now I'm standing here ...
I look up to the sky
I almost understand the reasons why.

Hi, RevWhiteWolf,
To walk, run or stand, looking up... the answer is out there and within. Though I may never understand the reasons why, I am blessed by each new day and hope to find my way. It feels right.
