Dwayne Banks - Stop and Think

When light does show, a distant shadow
Somewhere in the world, a soul does glow
Glows for the goodness, abound all around
Smiles from the heart, for the homeward bound

The home spoken of, is Heavens' gate
Forgiveness of your soul, it's not too late
Stop in your tracks, think of where you've been
You want what's right, no more sin

Never surmise the thoughts in this life
Just doing this, will cause some strife
Think of the good, forget the bad
Walk with a smile, no more sad

Be thankful you are here, reason unknown
We all walk through life, before we are grown
Intersection of roads, some less traveled
Choose the right one, don't become unraveled

This life we know can astound us all
Just walk upright, though be ready to fall
Fall into the love, the LORD has for you
There are many colors, not just blue
