How often you fear the road up ahead,
How often you dread the unknown,
How often, too, do you tend to forget
That you never walk alone.
For there’s One who well knows where you’re going,
He’s sure every step of the way,
For long, long ago He walked the same path
That you and I travel today.
And He understands every misgiving,
For fear is a part of us all,
But in faith make each step firm and steady,
And the Father will not let you fall.
Just remember He’s walking beside you,
With love that will never fail,
His arm around your shoulders,
His eye upon the trail.
