A New Way

The sadness is gone, the self-piety has left.

Although everthing has changed and nothing's the same.

There's still the memories, the disabilities, the intense pain.


The New Way's a stuggle, very hard indeed.

The battle lines have shifted, no longer really inside of me.

I have something Greater now, something few understand.

I've let go of my old grip, it's no longer in my hand.


You can't do that, they scream and they shout.

That's not the way you move a'bout.

Other things are of greater importance.

Your priority are all out of whack.

Get back in line, you're making us look like hacks.

It's this away and like that, you're doing it all wrong, quick come back.


Sorry, I said, I can't do that. I've been given a New Way to live, I'm on a different track.

Come follow me, let Him show you the Way.

He'll never forsake you, or leave you, or let you stray.

Come let's have a party and do it a New Way.
