Feet may grow weary,
But peace is still.
The Holy Ghost steers me,
And gives me chills.
The treasure of this world the devil has offered,
But I bear the cross and kneel at the alter.
The evil one has pleasures to please us,
But I will not fall short, because my eyes are on Jesus.
As long as I look at Him I can walk on water.
His glorious kingdom is what I’m a part of.
When I lack energy and I think all help is gone,
He turns my enemies into my stepping stone.
I don’t wipe my feet though…no need to rub it in,
Don’t stoop to their levels…this proves you love Him.
When the going gets rough…the coward will leave,
But those who have wisdom know that their power is in He.
