Though the pathway is rugged, footsore I am.
I know the Great Shepherd is watching over this lamb.

Weary body yearns to lay down my burdens, forever rest.
It continues to climb life’s difficult crest.

Limbs have ceased to function, pain is my levee.
Only my Master can set this infirmity free.

Looking to each horizon, eyes cast to the sky.
Yearning to develop angel wings, away fly.

I feel his power coursing through every vein.
Through the eyes of faith, healing is just the next plain.
