Pass It On

I think in that sense, it all boiled down to this. In the midst of all the business, at the point when things were the most overwhelming, I started to lose track of what I was doing, why I was doing it and who I was doing it for.

"I'm sorry Lord for the things I've made it, when it's all about You.."

I guess in that sense I've grown and I've changed.

And then when I just sat there, guitar in hand, I suddenly remembered the song that started it all, the song that sparked the passion; Pass It On.

It only takes a spark to get a fire going
And soon all those around will warm up in its glowing
That's how it is with God's love
Once you've experience it
You spread His love, to everyone
You want to pass it on

What a wondrous time in Spring
When all the trees are budding
The birds begin to sing, the flowers start their blooming
That's how it is with God's love
Once you've experienced it
You want to sing, it's fresh like Spring
You want to pass it on

I wish for you my friend
This happiness that I found
You can depend on Him, it matters not where you're bound
I'll shout it from the mountain top
I want my world to know
The Lord of love has come to me
I want to pass it on

The words are so appropriate. Every single one. (it's even Spring now)

But that's not the point. The point is this. It's still not too late for me to get back on track, to get my focus right again. If I were to die at the end of the year, I want to be able to at least say that I've given this my best, given this my all, and on top of that, I did it the right way; God's way.

And now with this spark in me again, it's time to pass it on..
