Without A Star

Without A Star

I’ve been out here all alone following the star in the sky
So I thought only been chased by a lion bit by a snake
And now here I am drowning in quicksand

Every time I see that star I feel the hope dig in deep and get out
I know I'm a fighter I'm not a quitter not going to give in and give up
But when I get out of one pit seem to jump right in another

The star even led me to the cross roads and danced with the devil
Thought he gave me what I wanted until I started running of the bulls
Looked back to see his evil grin heard careful what you wish for

Seeing some one on the side walks of life I said following that star
Well have to be crazy, that’s not a star that's Venus he said with a grin
Knock me down with a feather felt like a fool

Just when I felt like was without a star to follow I heard a voice
Don't follow the star but follow the one that made the stars above
Plus if you follow me get to see the devil run

One year later looking back seeing how blind I was in my own traps
Beyond the star I was looking for was the hand of Christ pulling me
All I can do now is laugh out loud and praise the Lord Amen, Amen
