Memoir

There is music and laughter lately

and there's prayers and praise there

are reasons to be so happy and beliefs to embrace

there are times to be so angry I'd rather lie in the sun

It's the summer of my lifetime

I've been blessed with some fun

I'm a season past springtime

and my life has gone boom

keep my eyes on the Father

everything is in bloom

Everything will just get better

through the seasons I'll roam

when all of the music's over

I will get to go home

I don't need theology

to know that God's been good to me

He's given me a family

and a place to lay my head

Flung into the great unknown

I was walking on my own

now I'll never walk alone

if I did I would be dead

I can't use it all myself

so I take it off the shelf here it is,

enjoy yourself put away your drudgery,

use it up,

there's always more

that's what it's intended for

be the Lord's ambassador

to be the planets remedy
