A Walk With The Lord

Three below zero isn't bad at all when the
warmth of God's love is in one's heart.

T'was three below zero outside
The air felt so crisp and so clean
I went for a walk with my dog
The feeling was really quite keen

Not a soul out at Four A.M.
As we trudged our way through the snow
Looked up at the star studded sky
Then felt all my burdens unload

I stopped and said a simple prayer
Thanked God for life's little blessings
Felt His sweet love deep in my soul
Thanked Him for all of His lessons

I asked Him to give me more strength
For today is a brand new trail
Said I'd give one hundred percent
Asked if He'd help me not to fail

The stars suddenly got brighter
I knew that God had heard my plea
Thank You Lord for Your loving ways
I thank You for caring for me

I promised Him I'd do my best
I promised to follow His lead
To help others along their trails
To be right there for those in need

The frigid air began to stir
Warming me right down to my heart
The moon shone from behind a cloud
Promising me a bright new start

Then my Luv and I went inside
Ready to start a bright new day
Knowing that God had walked with us
As He helped to show us the way
