When I have one of those days 
When nothing seems to be going well
My mind doesn’t what to function clearly
What should be normal I can’t seem to tell
I begin to wonder about all the change 
Is it real or all in my mind
Am I really living  close to God
Or is it lack of His peace I find 
Confusion comes when self is arguing
Over chores of today, which ones to do
Doing the ones you find least  appealing 
Causes a war to break out in you 
The battle for your mind is raging
My way, my thoughts struggling for control
Confusion will enter causing severe fatigue 
God is what I need to calm my soul
He is always aware of my every day
I suffer if I don’t ask help from Him
If I do what God asks of me
My  mind won’t swirl over every little whim
God has given me a sound mind
I don’t have to let worries confuse me at all
When I feel like it’s taking me over
All I have to do is look up and call
