Lord keep on guiding me the other way
I don't care what others may say
I just need to keep my focus on being strong

My old friends may not care for me
Because they're blind and cannot see
But I know I couldn't survive this way for long

My old way of life was killing me
And that's not the way it's supposed to be
I only wish I realized at the time, it was wrong

Hanging at the bars and clubs all day
Didn't know how to live another way
Till I got so sick and nobody seemed to care

I wound up in the hospital one Saturday night
My body was tired and couldn't put up the fight
I though I'd probably die, and for me that was quite a scare

I knew I couldn't do it on my own
Then I realized I wasn't alone
When God touched me and showed me he was there

He guided me to a new group of friends
People who would show me that life doesn't end
When you put down the bottle life could be so cool

They proved it by hanging out with me
Taking me places that I'd never see
When I was blinded while sitting on my favorite bar stool

Now I know I need to keep in touch with him
For without him my chances were pretty slim
If I went back to my old ways, I'd be such a fool

So thank you God for helping and being my friend
Showing me all the love that you have to send
Please keep me in your arms and never let me go

I'll try my best to please you
I ask you to continue to guide me through
The remainder of my life, for this I thank you so

Now I need to concentrate on moving on
Caring for my wife, daughter and son
And giving them the love, with the emotions I could never show
