TALK AND WALK

 

Having a little talk

As I try to walk my talk

Chattering with the Lord and

singing a new song

Clapping my hands as I move along

There haven't been any stones

Why fear though, I'm not alone

 

The rippling of the water and

Moving of the clouds

They're mighty high and look so proud

Oh yes, the trees are losing their leafs

This is part of the plan

Plus to leave our fears, doubts and grief's

For the man upstairs (God)

Will tend as He will

But not to leave His sheep very long

Without You---the Shepherd

 

All will know He always returns

At just the right time

There'll  be more toe tapping and praise

As they long and yearn

To see and know You've come back 

Then it's our turn to live and learn

How to Walk our Talk
