I try to listen to you Lord

When you speak to me each day.

Sometimes it’s hard to hear You

When the world gets in the way.

 

There are days when I’m not sure

Which way my life should go.

That’s when You take me by the hand

And lead me down the road.

 

Yes, you’re here when I am sleeping,

And you’re here when I’m awake.

Guiding me in this life I live,

In your special, loving way.

 

I feel your arms around me

When I’m feeling insecure.

Through You I have the strength

To face what I might fear.

 

Why do I want this closeness

With the Father up above?

So I won’t be in this lonely world

Without His assuring love.
