Show Me the Way

Its so dark and hard to see
Lord, send your guiding light 
To shine down on me
Show me the way
Show me the road
Show me which path 
You would have me to go

I want to hear your voice Lord
I need to hear from you
Cause, God, the way seems so dark
And I'm feelin so confused
I don't know where I'm going
I only know where I've been
And I don't want to go back there again

Its so dark and hard to see
Lord, send your guiding light 
To shine down on me
Show me the way
Show me the road
Show me which path 
You would have me to go

I know your always there
Just a prayer away
But Lord, sometimes I find
I don't have the words to say
But, God, I have a desire
To live for you each day
Please put a fire inside of me
Show me your will and way

Its so dark and hard to see
Lord, send your guiding light 
To shine down on me
Show me the way
Show me the road
Show me which path 
You would have me to go

Bethany, You must feel weak... Your strength is shared with so many. I know I take some of your strength with me each time I leave. You are an angel..... Jake

I like the line, "Show me which path You would have me to go." It is so refreshing to see a teachable spirit when many people could care less what God wants them to do.
