My Guide

Jesus

You tell me life can be
So full of joy I’m like a tree
Planted by your stream
Strong and well fed
My heart that once was dead
Now beats again
And proclaims your hope for those
With eyes to see
I hear your voice and see your eyes
They speak of love, abundant life
So why does dullness creep in seep in
And seem to steal the life within?
Why am I still blind at times
When your river runs right by my side?
Why can I not see your beauty
When it’s displayed right before me?
My fragile mind
It breaks with big agendas
It falls apart when plans are plenty
And fails to grasp that you are here
To steal the voice from my fear
And give me your hand
So I can follow you and trust again
Jesus
You speak of love so bold
And demonstrate it every day
So that I may follow you in every way
My fingers find your hand
They’re grasping now so don’t let go
I’m trusting you
I’ll see, I’ll go
I’ll follow you where you go
I’m blind in faith but free in life
Jesus
Lead me through this day as my guide
