Earlier today I was reminded of a journal entry I wrote about letting go - on May 29, 2008 - a date which I'll call the beginning of this latest journey of healing and preparedness and readiness. I was listening to the radio as I blogged about it, and heard Ginny Owens. She was singing the same song that spoke to me on May 29, 2008. I don't think the coincidence was accidental.
If You Want Me To
by Ginny Owens
The pathway is broken
And The signs are unclear
And I don't know the reason why you brought me here
But just because You love me the way that You do
I'm gonna walk through the valley
If You want me to
Cause I'm not who I was
When I took my first step
And I'm clinging to the promise You're not through with me yet
So if all of these trials bring me closer to you
Then I will go through the fire
If You want me to
It may not be the way I would have chosen
When you lead me through a world that's not my home
But You never said it would be easy
You only said I'd never go alone
ya oh oh no
So When the whole world turns against me
And I'm all by myself
And I can't hear You answer my cries for help
I'll remember the suffering Your love put You through
And I will go through the darkness
If You want me to
When I cross over Jordan, I'm gonna sing, gonna shout
Gonna look into your eyes and see you never let me down
So take me on the pathway that leads me home to you
And I will walk through the valley if you want me to
Yes, I will walk through the valley if you want me to
All for now,
Lisa
