Thursday Hymn Reflection: “Step by Step”

[Each Thursday, we “reflect” on a song submitted by our readers. If you would like to add your favorites to our list, leave a comment with no more than 3 suggestions.]

This song was suggested by one of our readers, but it has also been in my head today. This simple song is a great expression of faith, because it expresses praise, but also speaks of how growing in faith over a lifetime. As we face good days and bad days, we need to  have similar thoughts on our heart.

The power of this brief song is in its promise to the Lord to be with Him constantly and for the rest of our lives. Those are words that are easy to sing, but we need to think about how strong of a statement that is!

Here are the lyrics to this short, but very powerful, song.

O God, You are my God,

And I will ever praise You.

O God, You are my God,

And I will ever praise You.

I will seek You in the morning

And I will learn to walk in Your ways.

And step by step You’ll lead me,

And I will follow all of my days.
