Contemporary Christian song, cowritten by LJW. Replies always welcome.
I was looking inside myself
When suddenly I could see
The way that I was living my life
Was not what You intended to be
I was shaken and shattered
Whirling, I was caught in a spin
Moving in the same old direction
As the wheel went around again
Chorus:
I was living inside a circle
Riding a merry-go round
What I thought was a stairway up
Was an elevator going down
Then I found You are always beside me
From now until I reach the end
Cause You made my path straight
And now I can't wait
Till I'm resting in Your arms again
Even though I knew of Your Spirit
And I'd been touched by Your fire
The sight of Your light had been darkened
By shadows of worldly desire
I was beaten and battered
Lost and feeling so all alone
But You picked me up
And dusted me off
And showed me the way to go home
Repeat chorus
Hey leftgtr
Nice song, I would only change one thing the line Till I'm resting in Your arms again
this line bothers me I think it's the word again, I don't have any suggestions for a change though,
except to take it out.
Just My opinion.

Hi Lefty
Very simple song getting across confusion and how one person can set all that straight. Difficult thing to get across complex problems effectively but you've managed it well with this.
Good writing - I really like it
