No one can try to move forwards in life
Without eventually taking a quick look or a thought back.
Seeing just how far it was you’ve traveled
And relishing as to where it is you're at.
Learning from all life's possible mistakes
Or just seeing all those long steps you have made.
Through hardships and self-doubting criticism
Standing firm to your beliefs and remaining brave.
It really isn’t something
We all haven’t done maybe once before.
But when you take a good look back
You now may see your future
As like, you've never seen it before.
Those challenges met around every corner
You may have stumbled and tripped along life’s path.
But whatever you do, you need to take some time
To take a real long and good look back.
Then take sometime to thank your God
That’s the least that one can do.
For your given path forward
Could have only come from Him
As He walked your past
Now your forwards through.
