Without a Map

God, I’ve been sent here blind to learn to see
Remembering you were always there with me
But do you know just how hard that’s been?
Could all of this have really been foreseen?
I’d like to say a prayer, how does it go?
I’m tired.
Tell me, God, does it show?
What could have called for such a handicap?
I was sent out here without a map
All this time I’ve had to guess the way
To keep moving when I wished to stay
I’ve been wrong as much as I’ve been right
You tell me: 'Walk by faith and not by sight, and
Keep your heavy heart afloat
You are a timber carved by knife, but
Someday you may serve as a boat.'
What I lose here on earth…
…Is lost in heaven
If I ask you for help…
…it will be given
But you’ve waited this long…
…you weren’t ready
My devotion was strong…
…it wasn’t steady
I have one more question…
…you have the answer too
But what does that mean?
You’re I, and I am you
Why speak in riddles?
Then let me show the way
That’s all I’ve wanted
That’s all you’ve had to say
Well come on then, God, show me
Which way you would like me to go, and
I won’t resume to question
How I was ever supposed to know
There have been signs along the way, but
They’ve been so very obscure
At times I thought I knew their meaning, but
How could I’ve ever been sure?
God, I was sent here deaf to learn to hear
To have faith in you and never fear
Life is an ocean, you its every wave
Your arms would cradle me, and keep me safe
You’re right, all this, and more I need to learn
All this unease just makes my stomach churn
It was I not you who set this trap, but
You did leave me here without a map
All this time I’ve had to guess the way
To keep moving when I wished to stay
I’ve been right as much as I’ve been wrong, so
All I hear from you is: 'You are strong enough
For all you’ll ever have to face
The only map you need is Love
To guide you through this illusion of a maze.'
Our Father, who art in heaven
Hallowed be thy name
Thy kingdom come
Thy will be done
On earth, as it is in heaven
Give us today our daily bread
Forgive us, Father, all our sins
As we forgive those who sin against us, and
Lead us not into temptation, but
Deliver us from evil, for thy is the kingdom, and
The power, and the glory
Now and forever more
Amen
