I'm Having The Time of My Life

How like a dream my old life seems,
So far within the past,
I've traded foolish fancies for
The things I know will last.
And I am strong within His strength,
And precious in His sight,
Accepting all He sends, because
His ways are always right.

I'm having the time of my life right now,
Because I've learned to share
Everything I do with God,
Each minute I am here.
For He alone can read my heart,
And know what is within,
And He makes all things wonderful,
...Because He is my Friend!

I'm having the time of my life right now,
The battle is almost won,
My faith is strong and my conscience clear,
And I've only just begun
To know the peace He has promised me,
The joy of a job well done,
And I count my blessings along the way,
And thank Him for every one.

I'm having the time of my life right now,
For I never thought I'd be
Given a second chance such as
The Lord has given me,
To see with clearer eyes than I
Have ever seen before,
To know that when I knock, His hand
Will open up the door.

This poem is a reflection of my soul -
It has all the more meaning when I consider my state of mind during the time described in chapter 12 of my life story.  ....

This poem was also one of the inspirations and provided the title theme for my contribution to the Willard Scott book "The Older the Fiddle, The Better the Tune".
