There Is A Hand That Leads Me

I love to look back on my life and see the Lord's handiwork, and I love to see Him leading me for the future.  One of my most favorite pastimes is listening to or reading others' testimonies of how our Heavenly Father orchestrated things to make them turn out perfectly.  I love to learn and grow with Him as He leads me through paths I have never encountered before.  As a result of that, I wrote this poem tonight.

There is a hand that leads me

Though changing winds rage fierce;

It keeps me always on the path

And shows His will so clear.  

There is a hand that leads me

Through fire, storms, and pain

And guides me to the Cross, which means

I can be clean again.

There is a hand that leads me,

When I'm lost and alone.

It holds me firm within its grasp;

It has it's power shown.

There is a hand that leads me,

Brings me to sunshine, bright,

And though I've passed through darkness, cold,

I shall live in the light!
