Merry-Go-Round
by Danette Kettwich © 2008

Going through the motion

Like riding a merry-go-round

Life set on cruise control

Heeding complacencies sound.



The horses here are pretty

But the direction is all wrong

What Christ desires of me

Dedication that is strong.



Going 'round in circles

Accomplishing nothing at all

The enemy's opportunity

Ultimately to see me fall.



Christ longs for me to step

Off this melancholy ride

To come into His arms

Traveling along His side



Yes, it is time to dismount

This stagnant carnival ride

Plant my feet on solid ground

With my Savior at my side.
