Yesterday morning I was getting ready for church and wanted to listen to some hymns. I did a search on YouTube and found a playlist with beautiful hymns. The hymn, “Each Step I Take”, came up and I was reminded how much I love this song.
It’s so comforting to know that I can trust my life to the Lord. He knows what is best, and that to me is comforting to know that I can trust Him for what is best for me.
One of my favourite verses in Isaiah speaks about this, “And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.” Isaiah 30:21 Life can be confusing. I’m glad I have the best help.
Here are the lyrics…
Each step I take my Saviour goes before me,
And with His loving hand He leads the way,
And with each breath I whisper “I adore Thee;”
Oh, what joy to walk with Him each day.
Chorus:
Each step I take I know that He will guide me;
To higher ground He ever leads me on.
Until some day the last step will be taken.
Each step I take just leads me closer home.
At times I feel my faith begin to waver,
When up ahead I see a chasm wide.
It’s then I turn and look up to my Saviour,
I am strong when He is by my side.
I trust in God, no matter come what may,
For life eternal in His hand,
He holds the key that opens up the way,
That will lead me to the promised land.
And now here is a beautiful version of it being sung…
What song do you like to encourage yourself with?
That IS a beautiful song – I sing it often :).
The words come through so beautifully.
It is especially poignant as over the years, the Lord has led three sisters in three different directions but on the same path eternally…THAT is the best of this temporal life.

I’m sure as the children leave home, it’s comforting for parents to know that the Lord will be there to lead them.
