FOOTPRINT IN THE SAND
Footprint in the sand
He held me in His Hand
He gave me Strength
To face the coming day
At times I felt alone
I was never on my own
Someday I'll
understand
Footprints in the sand
Last night I had a
dream
I dreamed I was
walking along the beach with the Lord
And across the sky
lashed scenes from my life
And for each scene
I noticed two sets of
footprints in the sand
One belonged to me,
and the other to the Lord
And after the last
scene of my life flashed before me
I looked back at the
footprints in he sand
And I noticed that
many times along the path of my life
Especially at the
lowest and saddest times
There was only one set
o footprints
Now, this really
troubled me
So, I asked the Lord
about it
Lord, You said once I
decided to follow You
You'd walk with me all
the way
But I noticed
That during the
saddest and lowest times of my life
There was only one set
of footprints
And I don't understand
why I needed
You the most
You would leave me?
The Lord replied: "My
Son, My precious child
I Love you, and I
would never leave you
During your times of
suffering
When you could only
see only one set of footprints
It was then that I
carried you" |
