It’s been emotional
Harrowing and hard
Hormonal as hell
But, by God, I was dealt these cards
And I am going to play them
The best I possibly can
Not throwing in the towel
Not ever going to drown
I’m sucking it all up
Dusting myself off
Because even in the madness
Good things I’ve come across
He certainly might work
In mysterious ways
But there’s definitely a Divine plan
And I’m beyond amazed
New connections I’ve made
No such thing as coincidence
A new found faith in Him
For I sometimes lack common sense
Sometimes I get down
Sometimes I get sick
Just can’t fathom things out
And then I say, “F**k it!”
But then a hand from heaven
Maybe in disguise
Appears as if from nowhere
And makes me realise
That I am not alone
Someone up there cares
Someone’s watching over me
Answering my prayers
Someone’s got my back
And is teaching me each day
Subtly pushing me in the right direction
Never faltering, come what may
And I couldn’t be more grateful
Or in fact humble now
For never once in my insane life
Has He ever let me down.
