Escalator

Like an escalator
Our lives are up and down
One day we are full of fun
The next we wear a frown
We can let it take the strain
Or walk against it's flow
Surely if we used our heads
We'd know which way to go.

Like an escalator
God helps us with our ride
Reaching stages carefully
He is our perfect guide
Yes we will ignore Him
And get off on the way
He will help us climb back on
Hoping we will stay.
