My life’s journey is like a car ride
But I am not travelling alone
I have my best friend beside me
So we can talk, no need to phone.
Sometimes we come to a spot in the road
When I cannot see round the bend
But I have my co-driver with me
Who knows the beginning to the end.
There’s a hill ahead that looks very steep
But I know we will get to the top
And although our progress is slower
Our vehicle does not stop.
On the other side of the hill, what joy!
A wonderful view comes in sight
I shout with great excitement
Then have to hold on tight.
Knowing my Friend created that hill
And designed the glorious view
I turn to Him with grateful thanks
And see that He’s smiling too.
We continue on our journey
Sometimes talking, other times quiet
He suggests we stop and rest for a while
We get out and go for a bite
We continue driving till the sun goes down
I sleep but my Friend stays awake
He watches over me like a mother
Preparing things for my sake.
We continue like this looking back every day
Sharing what was right or wrong
Then we end each day as we begin it
In worshipping Father God in song.
