Let Go Let God

 Let Go Let God

I was young once so wild and free

Playing in sun running with wind

Just me

I was a teen in on the scene

Playing it cool played for a fool

Damn zits

I studied hard partied harder

Paper in hand--"want fries with that?"

In debt

Earned a chef hat elbows in grease

Drank up my tips nothing left but

Burn scars

I helped people with challenges

I was poured out weary burned out

Let go

Heard mission bells soup kitchen cook

Part time chaplain weary burned out

Fired

I'm not my past or my failures 

Not who I was or what I did

Let go

I've learned to breathe and be at peace

Lay burdens down give up control

Let God
