All the Way

There are trials and tribulation,
   there are struggles every day.
But God is always with me
   He will lead me all the way.
All the way to saint from sinner,
   all the way from birth to death.
All the way from earth to Heaven
   He will give me life and breath.

He is always walking with me,
   He is ever by my side.
He's become my place of shelter.
   In His arms I now abide.
I have learned to rest within them.
   He takes my care and sets me free.
He will give me what I ask for,
   if it does no harm to me.

Soon I'll be drinking living water,
   i'll have no more care or strife.
I'll leave behind those heavy burdens
   enter everlasting life.
His love is pure and overflowing,
   There'll be no more tears to cry.
He calls to all, we're all His children,
   why He sent His Son to die.

The day will come when life is ended,
   as we know it, it will cease.
If you're one of God's own children
   You'll find rest and joy and peace.
Keep you eyes on Jesus, always,
   and you'll reach that promised land
Don't lose sight of things eternal,
   hear His voice and hold His hand.

Hold His Hand He'll walk beside you,
   He'll walk with you all the way.
Through the trials and tribulations
   through the struggles day by day,
All the way to saint from sinner
   all the way from birth to death.
All the way from earth to heaven
   He'll give you life, He'll give you breath.
