My Father's Way

Normally, I am not one for poetry, or verse, but recently I was sent this poem from a special Aunt, and for a special occasion. No explanation is needed, and it can apply to more than one situation, at more than one time in our lives.

My Father’s way may twist and turn

My heart may throb and ache

But in my soul I am glad to know

He maketh no mistake

My cherished plans may go astray

My hopes may fade away

But still I trust my Lord to lead

For Father knows the way

There is so much I cannot see

My eye is still so dim

But come what may I still can trust

And leave it all to Him

For by and by the mist will lift

And darkness turn to day

Then looking back we will praise His Name

Who led us all the way.
