The Ascent

Freely, freely falling down a pit
This pit so dark and damp
Taking another breath, thinking this may be it
Only such a fall could be life, led without a lamp

We say it will last forever
Or we say there will be a better place
But even the brightest can't think so clever
A plan that no man can trace

We are left with such dark history
Given clues about our past
Though it is a harsh mystery
Never knowing if you might be last

Freely, freely falling down a pit
So dark and damp
Taking a calmer breath, maybe this could be it
Finally, seeing, led, by one so wise, with a lamp

We say it will last forever
Or we say there iwll be a better place
But with His guidence, you will faulter, never
Because He takes you to his face

We are left with such dark history
Given clues about our past
When we finish, there will be no mystery
Hoping that you wont be the last

Freely, Freely falling down a pit
A pit which just might end
But we don't care, because the path is lit
But wait, I'm only nearing the first bend
