Always keep both feet on the ground; letting go of control will get you on a roll.
Life will always work out fine
If God is controlling our life’s design.
The most promising choice always is
To let go control of one’s business.

Give and take will always remind me
To be patient, honest, and forgiving to thee!
And letting go of all control
Will be sure to have me on a roll…

I’ve learned to always take ‘no’ for an answer,
But only if I have to, dear madam or sir –
And trying to do one’s best forever,
This benefit of the doubt, is a knee-deep river!

The best one can do is listen to people,
A community of church folks, pastor, and steeple.
And when you’re in command with clearest vision,
Give folks the benefit of the doubt for correction.

Isn’t the lesson that God’s trying to teach
Don’t be too stubborn with a goal you can’t reach?
The benefit of the doubt is for crazy folks around –
Always keep both your feet on the ground…
