A wayward soul's choices in life reach a penacle in which a decision to follow Jesus is made. Please click on the link below to listen to this poem as a song.

Crossin' All the Way

Sitting on a bridge with my feet hanging over
Thinking of where I've been and I'm so glad its over
I don't have too far to go to reach the other side
So why am I still sitting here, there's nothing left to decide

I could tell you stories about what I've seen and done
But the sadness that they'd bring I don't wish on anyone
'Cause then I heard a voice call out He said 'leave it all behind'
So I've taken that first step and made up my mind

Well I'm crossin' this bridge
I've made up my mind
I'm  leaving all this sorrow and heartache behind
Not on my own strength will I make  my way
The world behind me the cross before me
Yah I'm crossin'all the way

Hanging on to the rails I see water rushing under
Heart poundin' in my ears sounds like rollin' thunder
But I won't dare shut my eyes`cause then I can't see
The cross on the other side beckoning me

Step by step well I'm almost there
I see cracks in the bridge so I must beware
Oh lord what if I can't follow through with this plan
He said 'don't worry my child, just reach out and take my hand'

Well I'm crossin' this bridge
I've made up my mind
I'm  leaving all this sorrow and heartache behind
Not on my own strength  will I make  my way
The world behind me the cross before me
Yah I'm crossin' all the way
