Lord I stumble; I fall and lose my way

Lord like sheep I tend to wander astray



Lost in the darkness; alone and afraid

I said “I am sorry” “Help me” I prayed

In the vast silence you heard my desperate plea

And there in an instant you were there with me

You offered your hand and helped me stand

You looked at me and softly smiled. Why I don’t understand

“Child, I love you always. I’m here by your side for all days

Wherever you go whatever you do I will always love you”



I know I make mistakes and do the things that are wrong

Walking slippery slopes and blinded all along



Lost in the darkness; alone and afraid

I said “I am sorry” “Help me” I prayed

In the vast silence you heard my desperate plea

And there in an instant you were there with me

You offered your hand and helped me stand

You looked at me and softly smiled. Why I don’t understand

“Child, I love you always. I’m here by your side for all days

Wherever you go whatever you do I will always love you”



Guiding me along the road to tread the path you trod

Send your angels to keep me; be my stronghold oh God



Lost in the darkness; alone and afraid

I said “I am sorry” “Help me” I prayed

In the vast silence you heard my desperate plea

And there in an instant you were there with me

You offered your hand and helped me stand

You looked at me and softly smiled. Why I don’t understand

“Child, I love you always. I’m here by your side for all days

Wherever you go whatever you do I will always love you”



Lord be the lamp for my feet and the light on my path

Anoint my head with oil and guide me with your staff



Lost in the darkness; alone and afraid

I said “I am sorry” “Help me” I prayed

In the vast silence you heard my desperate plea

And there in an instant you were there with me

You offered your hand and helped me stand

You looked at me and softly smiled. Why I don’t understand

“Child, I love you always. I’m here by your side for all days

Wherever you go whatever you do I always will and always have loved you”
