The path became so narrow at times that I could hardly see
But you were always there to hold my hand
At times I did not understand
Many times my life was filled with pain
But I knew it was not all in vain
I wanted to run, but where could I go
For you see, someone would stop me
Give me strength for just one day
I know I'll soon find my way
It seems the tears would never stop
They flowed like rain drops
Pain, what have I to do with thee?
I ask myself, while down on my knees
Oh Father I see the way clearly
As You lead me home today
To only feel and touch them Lord is all I ask for today
For its been a long time
To find my way
But you were always there
You knew every step I took
For as I read in Your book
The gentle hands, I did not want to overlook
A long way home it's not at all,
For I have heard the call and it has been worth it all
