So Far
We’ve come so far together, but I've got so far to go
There are things I've yet to go through that You already know
I've been through peaks and valleys, but have not yet seen the top
You remind me that I will get there if I keep faith and refuse to stop
The cards may be stacked against me, but You are stacked against the cards
Your provision was established before me, before my journey even starts
But I have to be bold and courageous and look adversity in the eye
There are so many excuses that could be made - so many reasons not to try
But in You, there is only victory when paired with the will to win
You put purpose in all existence and reveal it to the hearts of men
You reveal Your truth to me, though there are many things I do not know
We've come so far together, but I've got so far to go.
Beyond the Foundation
This is beyond the foundation
Elevation
Another level
Of battling the devil
Of pedal to the metal
Of learning and earning
This is beyond the foundation
That has already been laid
By the soldiers before us who braved
Circumstances that required improvement
Like ours today
And they made a way
For us to build past the foundation
And go beyond
And individually I have been the victim of my own limitations
Until I realized they are not limitations
They are factors in these equations
And I must find a way to win
Utilize chess moves for the master men
Deliberately embody the balanced master blend
To build on what you’ve been through
To another level
Elevation
Beyond the foundation.
