Not By Sight
I walk by faith, and not by sight
When my path is hard to see
I only know God knows the way
And walks along with me
So if I sftumble in the dark,
Or miss a turn somewhere,
It's all ok, because I know
That He is always there
I used to walk in fear and doubt
My way was so unclear
Until I heard Lord Jesus say,
"Don't worry, I'm right here!
Just keep walking, take My hand,
I'll show you where to go
Be patient, and put down that map,
For I AM the Way, you know
You may not get there when you want,
You may think there's delay
But trust in Me, I know the plan,
and have the final say
Remember Who is in control…
And keep Me in your sight
Just walk on, be strong and bold,
I'll guide you through the night"
And so I just reached out and took
The hand He offered me
And as I walk along with God,
I’m confident and FREE!
No maps to read, no miles to count
My steps now sure and light
And even when the days are dark
I know I'm in His sight
Trusting Him has made my walk
More carefree than before
He's got my back, He's proven that
Each day I learn to trust Him more
So whether my pace is slow or fast
Or I pause to rest a day
I know I'll get there right on time
Because God leads the way
