Just when I thought I had lost you
Cause I put the book back on the shelf and hid in the shadows of myself
Somehow I kept coming across you
Even in valleys of despair, your voice was speaking to me there
And you said:
âChild, oh child, give me your burdens
My hands are strong enough to hold all of the doubts that ï¬ood your soul
Faith thatâs strong is not always certain
So blessed are you when you believe all of the things you cannot see
Take my hand and let me guide you
I know what it's like to feel alone; I walked a path you've never known
Feel my words burning inside you
Theyâll be a candle in the dark; keeping the shadows from your heart
Child, oh child, Iâm gonna reach you
Even when youâre too lost to pray; even when your faith slips away
In the end Iâm gonna meet you
Cause just when your feet fall out of line, and just when you think youâre left behind
Iâm gonna leave the ninety-nine; Iâm gonna ï¬nd you every time
I changed your heart with just a word; Iâll speak again to change your mind
I wasnât scared to bear your hell, so I think Iâll bear your doubts just ï¬neâ
God, my God, the way that you keep me
When daily I put you on a shelf, and hide in the shadows of myself
Youâre the only thought that moves me completely
Though I may stumble down this road, I know your gracious arms will lead me safely home
