Another

Another pen with something to say,
Another way to pass the day,
Another plan to ride on high,
Another pause to wonder why.

Another night in restless sleep,
Another care upon the heap,
Another fall to rise again,
Another pause to wonder when.

Another journey, far to range,
Another yearning for a change,
Another evening in despair,
Another pause to wonder where.

Another thing that didn’t work,
Another search where dangers lurk,
Another fear you’re in a rut,
Another pause to wonder what.

Another person comes along,
Another question, “What went wrong?”
Another time you thought you knew,
Another pause to wonder who.

Another test you think you failed,
Another bump your life derailed,
Another victory avowed,
Another pause to wonder how.

There is no need to worry now:
His Spirit comes, and peace endows;
Until our Lord shall come again
The only question left is when.
