Can’t Always Manage Precious

Crossroads present many choices

And they can scream with distorted voices

None ever say dear go this way

They compel me to turn with trouble dismay

A long time ago I said Jesus come in

Live here in my heart and cleanse me from sin

When I did I thought it was all done

And I could cruise through life’s cross roads, every one

Yet I still stop and have my doubt

Surely I should be able to work things out

My heart has been cleansed so surely I must know

At those crossroads which way to go

Now when I get there I still hear screams

A lot of distraction to slow my dreams

Got many choices still but why

Even after I invited Jesus in, can’t I

Pilot my course without uncertainty

Right or left, straight ahead, which can it be?

Every turning looks the same, which should I take

Can’t just go to any that would make

Inaccurate judgment so what should I do

Oh Jesus, are you still here? I turn to you

Use me, guide me, I’ll do things your way

Should’ve been focused on you all along, please forgive me I pray
