Dennis Wright Song title / '' My Guiding Light'' © 2017 _______________________________________ Vs 1: When I was seventeen years old mama passed away I had to quit school cause I didn't have no place to stay Being a teenager and uneducated I thought that I would never make it Living on the streets and unemployed Made life so damn hard Not knowing where my next meal were going to come from Any hope for a future seemed impossible
Vs 2: Waking up every morning with the same clothes on With no place to take a bath no place to call home Sleeping under a shed wrapped in paper to keep warm Praying that the storm would soon blow over Couldn't help but to wonder what the next day were going to bring Lord will it be sunshine are will it be rain Going up and down that same old road Seemed like all hope was gone
Chorus: There wasn't a day that didn't go by I wonder how I was going to survive I did everything I could do But nothing seem to come through So many nights I cried myself to sleep Wishing that mama was here with me But through all the bad times You were my guiding light
Vs 3: Everyday I went out looking for a job I would see signs on the door saying we don't hire vagabonds The hard times I was going through seem endlessly There ain't no worse feeling in the world than being hungry People walk by they pretend not to see Wouldn't even give me a dollar to buy a cup of coffee Sometimes I didn't care rather I lived are died That was just how bad I was hurting inside
Bridge: I remember one night saying a prayer to God I was so tired of fighting I had given up I said Lord if you have a blessing for me Give it to someone else who is in need That very next day I received a telephone call Wasn't expecting any good news at all I was blessed richly and abundantly Until this day my life has never been the same
Chorus: There wasn't a day that didn't go by I wonder how I was going to survive I did everything I could do But nothing seem to come through So many nights I cried myself to sleep Wishing that mama was here with me But through all the bad times You were my guiding light

"If one man can do it, any man can do it. It is true. But the real question is, if one man did it, are you willing to do what it takes to do it as well?" –Brian Austin Whitney
