June 2002 [bodytext] => Each day begins with a choice
You answer back with your inside voice
In this day will I glad
Angry, or sad

My days are numbered this I know
Some day I’m gonna go
To myself I think
What reason do I have to cause a stink

My debt is paid
On the cross my King has laid
I know I am loved
In their embrace I am gloved

A roof o’er my head
A nice warm bed
My parents pay for my school
That’s definitely cool

This worlds not all peaches and cream
Of this I can only dream
People have pain
People have rain

My heart’s desire
To take them from this mire
To heal every one
By me this cannot be done.

My heart does ache
What will it take
What can I do
To help others make it through

Share my delight
With every one in sight
To make the world a better place
If only in my private space

Not to live in gloom
Or my life to doom
Forgive and forget
Do not fret

Let go of the past
Hang on to what will last
Leave my life in God’s hand
Whatever he gives me will be grand

Each day I make my choice
In this day I will rejoice
To look at the good, not forgetting the bad
There is too much fun to be had
