When the sun is at my front and the wind at my back When all is calm and lovely and there is nothing that I lack When we treat each other with love and respect Everyone is care for and there is no more neglect
You led me then you lead me still Lord lead me now somehow I know you will Live in me and give me the grace I need for the mission Lord warm me conform me open my ears to listen
When the enemy surrounds me and my back's against the wall I place my trust in you I don't have to fear at all When the storms are raging and I'm blinded by the spray I think of you and find the strength to say
You led me then you lead me still Lord lead me now somehow I know you will Lord take me remake me help me speak what's true Lord grow me and show me how to point to you
I'm standing on the front lines in a holy battleground A war for the heart of man with victims all around It rages always without end both day and night In the darkness all I am is a small ray of light
You led me then you lead me still Lord lead me now somehow I know you will Lord hold me enfold me keep me safe from harm Lord send me defend me hold me in your arms
Throughout my life you were always leading me All of this seems very clear to see In sun and rain in joy and pain you were always right beside Your word is a lamp to my feet and on the path you guide
So Lord right now please hear my prayer You know I am earnest, my soul is laid bare: You led me then you lead me still Lord lead me now somehow I know you will
