Calvary painted love's picture for me.

CHARTER PLANE

 

I chartered a plane for glamour and glitz

To places that looked as good as the Ritz

I steered it myself to places unknown

Thinking I could make it alone

All of the while I could not tell

The end destination would surely be hell.

Like a mirage I saw glittering lights

Twinkling like the stars in the night

 

When I arrived, the beauty would fade

Nothing was worth the price I had paid.

I tried and I tried to follow my heart

But yet, once again, saw it broken apart

Like Humpty’s pieces, I was in shards

Except that this time the King sent his guards.

 

Friends that were true lent me their ears

I found out that I had nothing to fear

Handing the keys over to God

Caused me to walk where no angel had trod

This heart that was splintered, He made it anew

And I found out the picture he painted was true

The places he takes me give rest to my soul

I’m so thankful I’ve given my pilot control.
