AS YOUR HAND I HOLD
Let my words and actions reveal your story,
Open my heart that I may your love proclaim…
Let me be a reflection of your great glory,
Open my lips that I may praise your Name.
–
Teach me Lord, what you would have me say
With your forgiveness…fill me til I overflow…
By your word lead me along life’s pathway,
That your forgiveness to others I freely show.
–
Grant me one more day your praises to sing,
With each breath I take be in thanks to you…
You are my source, my life, my everything,
The promises in your word I find true.
–
On that great Day, the trumpets sounding
I’ll sing your sweet praises with saints of old…
Rejoicing with each step of holy grounding,
Your love has led me home, your hand I hold!

(A Minor Note on Capitalization: Carl Gooch, as many authors and Bible versions practice, does not always capitalize nouns referring to God or divinity…whereas I generally do. Hence some differences between his text and my Tags.–J.E.C.)
