Ferris Wheel of Life ..

We're going to ride the ferris wheel of life

And when it gets to the top,

We'll review each of the blessings we've received.

They never seem to stop!

Round and round we go

Never stopping, never wondering,

Our life's struggle has it's beginning

It will always have it's ending.

Along our way we've found laughter,

Love and happiness, freely given by

Earth angels we call 'friends'

From them we find courage to ride

Life's ferris wheel time and again.

We have our ups and down

And fears for the future in our early rise

Our aching knees we take in strides

We have a God that heals and provides

For this we trust in faith and give thanks.

As long as there's beauty in the sunrise,

The sound of laughter at a sweet surprise

A child reaching for our hands to hold 

The ride of life's ferris wheel, we'll savor

Just knowing the blessings of God's favor,

Our hearts will be happy and we'll never grow old!
