Because of the Horse by David Grant

Never in my wildest dreams could I have ever imagined.
Upon this noble steeds mighty back, the course I took because of the horse.
Many a trail I did ride in life so full of trials and strife.
Seeking fame and fortune and things of legends.
But the answer was right there in front of me on the back of the mighty horse.
Seasons come and seasons go in the life of the frail being called me – just a man.
Not many troubles can I avoid all I can do is stay the course.
When the storms of life come down so sudden and unexpected.
Where other than the Lord can I turn
Of course it is upon the back of the mighty horse.
Upon his strong back did this country grow
Many a honor his way did man bestow.
When I make my last ride when my life has run its course.
Could I be so blessed that I could one last time spend my last hours on the back of the mighty horse.
