Walk With Me

If your burdens have you down and
You feel you’ve lost your way, you
Need not wander life along
A path that aimless strays

Friend to friend, you’re not alone
I’m here, and will abide
Sailing through the storms of woe
Right beside you, I will guide

Behind you, in your sails I’ll blow
Like the wind that carries you on
A new horizon will be your map to
Bridge the great beyond

Over the side, in faith you’ll step on the
Troubled and shifting tide
Water will roil and fear may call, but
I am here, and will abide

Will you trust and walk with me?
Ease in and you may find
Your faith will grow upon each step and
Mind the test of time
