Finding My Faith by: Leilani Terrell
Leilani wrote this with inspiration from the talk I gave at church today. She’s awesome :)
Standing up here
I’m on the brink
Talking with you
I’m beginning to think
I’m reflecting on the past
And all I’ve been through
I’m reflecting on the past
And I’m ready to share with you
Around every corner
I looked high and low
Searching for that place
To call my new home
People gave directions left and right
So many turns, I hit a bumpy road
Lost, without a map
I felt so alone
Finding my faith
Finding my faith
I’m dodging the bite
Of the poisonous snake
I’m learning fast
And I’m falling hard
But I’m ready to do
Whatever it takes
To find my faith
To find my faith
I was a cloud so jubilant
On that cross road day
But the breeze didn’t approve
She moved on, when I asked her to stay
Tears filled my eyes
My heart was broken
I could never forget the words
That she had spoken
Now, I’m making new covenants
And chances I’m taking
I’m not listenin’ to their noise
Telling me, mistakes I’m making
Finding my faith
Finding my faith
I’m avoiding the bite
Of the poisonous snake
I’m learning fast
And I’m falling hard
But I’m ready to do
Whatever it takes
To find my faith
To find my faith
My choices, my decisions
Were met with disdain
But my heart is strong
My faith has remained
My heart is battered
Of this I’m sure
I’ve faced countless battles
But I know I can endure
My Father’s light guides me
Towards the narrow door
To celestial kingdom
Where everything is pure
Some do not agree
With the master plan
And some may hate me
For everything that I am
But all those in favor
Raise up your hands
All in agreeance
With that master plan
All in agreeance
Raise up your hands
Finding my faith
Finding my faith
I’m still dodging the bite
Of that poisonous snake
I’m still learning fast
And I’m still falling hard
But I know where I belong
With every breath I take
I know,
I’ve found my faith
I’ve found my faith
