"Glory Be!"

"The Sun,
is outside smiling,
and I'm getting out of bed!

Today in my recovery,
I choose to live instead,
of finding ways and means,
to die,
with all the drugs,
I used to use and try.

Glory be,
to The Son of God in me,
for He,
is The One,
who helps me see,
that I am free,
and I am ever grateful,
He chooses to take,
this journey with me.

Because the old me,
he was so very afraid,
and thought no power,
resided in what was prayed.
He thought God,
was just a mean little kid,
that long ago,
gave up on what we said or did,
but boy was I utterly wrong,
and now I choose,
to be part of God's Song,
and I wish I would've done so,
so long,
ago,
and now I have back my glow,
and my spiritual growth,
might happen slow,
but I claim the progress,
it is mine,
and glory be,
to how Jesus,
His Words,
so kind and divine,
that helps me to be,
someone that shines!"
