"Decision Maker" by Michael Harrington

The clock is ticking, time is running out

The decision must be made, but I still have too much doubt.

Should I move far away to get a good degree

Or stay close to home with my friends and family?

I feel torn down the middle, like I'm being torn apart

My problem is too big and I don't know where to start.

My family wants me to go away and get a good education

But my heart tells me to stay, for it contains the biggest complication,

A girl who is beautiful and consumes my every thought

When I am with her and when I am not.

The most wonderful girl is staying here, I know.

There is a force deep inside of me telling me not to go.

The force of true love or a natural source?

No! I believe it is God who is steering my course.

He is telling me to stay and to trust in Him

He will guide me with his light that is never dim.

How could I have been so blind? I should have looked to Him first

He is always there waiting to quench my thirst.

Now my decision has been made and I can stand tall

For the weight has been lifted everything big and small.

I am staying here, I know it's the right decision

For God has planned it with His perfect precision.

He can do the same for you in every situation

Just put your faith and trust in him no matter the location.
