Ponder Your Path

The world will tell us, “Follow me”,
But that is not the way,
For that path leads to destruction,
Broken hearts and decay.
 
It’s not a question unanswered,
For history is there
To show us, again and again,
That path leads to despair.
 
Each time we stand up in the lie,
Which this world claims is true,
We find ourselves lost in darkness
That we must then fight through.
 
There is no goodness born of man,
Though goodness still prevails,
For He who calls us, laid the path,
His good works form the trails.
 
To each the question one day falls,
“Whose voice do I follow?”
The voice that calls out from darkness,
Or His, whose light I know?
 
Ponder the path that you will take
Before you’re called to choose,
Keep your feet on the path He walked,
Or trust this world, and lose.
 
Proverbs 4:26-27
Ponder the path of your feet; then all your ways will be sure.
Do not swerve to the right or to the left; turn your foot away from evil.
