Climbing the Heights

Now to this uncertain path

Now to this uncertain path
To where I cannot see
For now to know the crossroads
Tis sure enough

And hope that I
Am made of greater stuff
To trudge along ahead
Though know I not the way

Oft in silence
And passing of time
Waiting and praying
Then choosing at last

The past remains
The present most sure
Though yet unsure
The future mearly
A dream

A hope of what
Might or might not be
Save only to wait
And see

Ah for waking
And wondering
Of praying
And pondering

If only to know
At last the way
Was right

Yet the way
Is marked
By faith
And not
By sight

So if it must
Be only to trust
Then by lessons learned
And wisdom discerned

May guide the way
More clear
Today

If for now
Is all
That's
Known

Enough
It shall be
To wait
And see
