Analysis of Show Me The Way
I was walking in the wrong direction.
And I know I needed God's correction.
Then I fell on my knees, cried out to God please! Show me the method, to get rid of this cancer. While I was searching for the correct answer, God showed me the way and took away my disgrace.
In my heart He melted the hate that I had for this place. I learned in the future if you have a problem and need someone to solve it, talk to God, who can dissolve any folly.
