Lord Lead Us ThroughA Poem by Melanie Jane Boicourt ShanksA song
This world gets me annoyed.
I try to just avoid
So I don’t get destroyed.
The stress that gets me down
Don’t want to be around.
Don’t want to hear the sound.
The hatred that I fear,
Don’t want it in my mirror
Please let it disappear.
I know You’re by my side
So I don’t have to hide.
Just trying to abide.
Lord, lead me through.
Lord, lead me through.
Lord, lead me through.
I’ll follow You.
Confusion in our eyes,
You see right through our lies.
You know it’s a disguise.
You know when we are true.
You know just what we do.
Can’t hide our sins from you.
Sometimes I feel insane.
Is all of this in vain?
Can’t handle all the pain.
Then I think of Your Son.
And everything He’s done.
I know that He’s the One
To lead us through.
Lord, lead us through.
Lord, lead us through.
We’ll follow You.
Suffering everywhere
And life seems so unfair
And no one seems to care.
There’s chaos in the air.
Your people live in terror.
Oh Lord, please hear our prayer.
Though this world, it may sting
We’ll use our voice to sing
Our praises to the King
And despite everything
To Your words we will cling
Your glory it will ring.
You’ll lead us through.
Lord, lead us through.
Lord, lead us through.
We’ll follow You.
