gray promise of sameness – v3

holding onto the old, the past,
what has always been;
the gray promise of sameness
our future, if we will not change

culling the clutter of our past
to start ever anew;
hope in Your loving arms
to walk closer to You

leaving the past behind us
the gray promise of sameness;
boldly following You Lord
wherever You will lead us
