On The Edge

Walking on the edge    
Of life's highway    
Sometimes the good      
Brings the bad our way      
Failures are reminders where we went wrong      
If we learn, they make us strong      
Livin' on faith is never a compromise      
You'll find the truth without surprise
 
You're only paralyzed      
If you lay by the pool and wait      
You can't count on a friend      
To let you in      
At thirty-eight it's never too late      
Listen to the voice, pick up your mat      
And walk      
Just walk on
 
They'll try to tell you      
You're wrong      
Just stay strong      
Find the place where His children pray      
Out of the crowd will come a better day
