Faithful and True

If I fall to my knees Lord, and call on your love Your wings will surround and I’m a hand in your glove Though the storm rages fierce, though who I know turn away still your face is toward Me it is brighter than day I feel the rush of conviction, as your power Rips through. My tongue is loosened, My mind filled. Lord this is all just of you! Through the shadows of this world Lord I am allowed to discern, some of the road we Must travel, Lord the rest I must learn Leaning only on you Lord, following close Behind, on the path you have trodden There’s none other to find On this path of no turning, I am hemmed not by you But hedges of evil where I shouldn’t break through Though they catch on my garment, though They threaten my skin, I must hold to Your promise, as I’m passing thorough sin For your leading me on Lord, On the path Narrow so.' Where only one can travel Where you lead I will go. It’s so straight and close Lord, here We can be alone; I can tell you my doubts Lord as you remove that hard stone I would learn of such patience, I would learn of Your toil, in the garden of earth Lord Where you raised me from soil Lead me on, on this straight road On the road that you made, as you Walked out from Pilate To the cross and that grave Then you entered into hell Lord and so Many rejoiced; you brought life to The hopeless and those dead raised Their voice. They called you their master, and the Victor o’er all, Lord your strength Never falters, in the Fathers at all Now you sit at His right hand, right there at His side, and the spirit is here; soon we will be All one Lord ' when you take you your bride.! ©Joe Maverick 13-2-2022
