He Did It His Way

He did it his way, he chose the path on which he did go walk

On this way he chose, he walked the walk and talked the talk

Sorrows came and grief’s they appeared at times, upon his way

Life was full as he traveled along, he had no regrets he does say

He was certain of paths on which went, he did what he had to do

His course was planned, he tells his friends, and he saw it through

And as his end comes near, he states his case, of which he is certain

His steps have now all been trod, and now he faces his final curtain



The curtain rises, a hush across the room now, lets hear this man

Standing tall, looking out into the crowd, let him explain if he can

All those reasons why he did what he had to do, the things his way

The roads he traveled now all behind, what does he now have to say

His plans and dreams, once so sure, now lost along life’s yesterdays

Fears and cares all tossed aside, somewhere now  vanished in the haze

One last song he sings, his mind now at rest, for he has given his best

For he did His way, he stayed strong as he walked, and passed the test.
