Not Yet
Amanda had a strong will to survive, but also a strong willingness to surrender to God’s Will and Plan for her life; knowing that God’s Love and Grace was all that she required.
I doubt not that You’re in control
Yet something burns within my soul
My will to live
More than a flame
It blazes forth
Refusing to wane
Your will be done- just not yet
I have too many dreams, too many regrets
I didn’t mean to waste
Each precious day
Seeking my own will
Wandering astray
Now the clock continues to tick
And I’d give anything to not be sick
I beg and plead
To just be healed
Sometimes afraid
My fate is sealed
Please don’t take me, at least not yet
I’ve been blessed with so much, my future’s all set
My youth cries out
My heart is on fire….
But wait---
Your love is all I require.
