This day

This day ain't what I expected
It's what I've sometimes hoped for
It's actually what I want in a day
I'm smiling
I'm laughing

It indeed is a gift
I now understand why it is a day of the Lord
It's His will
He gave it to me
I am
He is
He was, He will be

He wishes me to be with Him always
I choose if I want to be with Him
He gives me that many opprtunities
That many opprtunities-daily

With each breath
With each moment I still can choose
I decided so many days ago
Each day is a joy

Yes, I may cry
Yes, I may feel sad
You may say I'm not joyous
My spirit rejoices
I know the shoulder always there for me

My guide always there
This day I will walk with Him
Like any other day
I choose to walk with Him
For as long as He will.
