Beam of Light

I was surprised just now to find I haven't posted on here since October of last year!  Shame on me.  I hope to start anew.

Long I prayed for a beam of light

To come direct my way.

And long I felt that prayer in vain;

In sorrow, I ceased to pray.

But step by step, You're leading me;

I can't see far ahead.

But You still provide the orders;

By Your hand I am led.

And as the path is dark ahead,

Your Word, my Light to see

Oh, Master, only tell the step!

I'll follow close to Thee.

This was a prayer of sorts I wrote while contemplating what my future holds now that I'm in college.  The last verse is a sort of turning point for me -- just tell the next step, Lord, and I'll follow along.  I don't need to know all of it now.
