One Step

One step at a time Lord Jesus
guide me on my way
One step at a time Dear Jesus
lead me not astray

There are paths where the flashy lights glow
temptations a many pleasures they bestow
But a life of regret and heartache they sow
leaving you broken and with nothing to show

There are paths where troubles grow
Worry and strife overflow
Hate and war is all that you know
Failure and falling with no hand to hold

One step at a time Lord Jesus
guide me on my way
One step at a time Dear Jesus
lead me not astray

Let me walk in your footsteps above
Fill my life with your holy love
Give me direction I crave and need
Show me the path to follow as you lead.

One step to repentance with your love profound
One step to salvation by your blood sins drown
One step with faith to lead my way
One step a journey by Grace we are saved.
