When the paths seem look all incorrigible,
and hope seems all lost
When success feels a dream,
and gifts lose their cost
-I still don't lose hold,
a Voice whispers to be bold.
When determination staggers down,
and nightmares come for real
When happiness seems a fantasy,
and wounds take long to heal
-I still cannot strive to hide,
a Presence stands by my side.
When plans go haywire,
and things go wrong
When all happens for the worse,
and life seems but a sad song
-I still jump up to every tide,
an Arm stretches out to guide.
When all seems lost,
and darkness prevails the day
When despair takes an upper hand,
I still don't run away
-For every night when I turn to bed,
I close my eyes and feel the Hand on my head.
