I threw out those Inhibitions;
I threw out a book on MY PAST
I threw out hate and bad memories,
Brought in some new books too,
I ran across an OLD FRIEND,
He helped me to do some cleaning
I picked up this special thing
Yes, I've got my house looking nice.
Its good to do a little house cleaning,
Last Week I threw out Worrying,
it was getting old and in the way.
It kept me from being me;
I couldn't do things God's way.
they were just crowding me out.
Made room for my New Growth,
got rid of my old dreams and doubts.
(didn't have time to read it anyway).
Replaced it with New Goals,
started reading it today.
(remember how I treasured them so)?
Got me a NEW PHILOSOPHY too,
threw out the one from long ago.
called I CAN, I WILL, and I MUST.
Threw out I might, I think and I ought.
WOW, You should've seen the dust.
haven't seen him in a while.
I believe his name is GOD,
Yes, I really like His style.
and added some things Himself.
Like PRAYER, HOPE and FAITH,
Yes I placed them right on the shelf.
and placed it at the front door.
I FOUND IT - its called PEACE.
Nothing gets me down anymore.
Looks good around the place.
For things like Worry and Trouble
there just isn't any place.
get rid of the old things on the shelf.
It sure makes things brighter;
maybe you should TRY IT YOURSELF.
