I've tried to follow in your footsteps always to give in, Leaving yours for darker paths which only lead to pain. The pathway back each time I leave gets harder yet to live, And I feel as if I've nothing left to give. You say the road is narrow and there's not another way, Yet I met with trials that get harder every day. The pathway lies before me and you pray to help me see, But my hardened heart won't listen to your plee. Find hope in the Savior, never leave his side, His love will always guide you through. Listen to his teachings, swallow up the pride That kept you from your father's arms. You must press forward with a steadfast faith in Christ, Place all your hope in him. If you'll feast on his words enduring to the end, You'll have the blessings of eternal life. Each storm may lead you from the pathway but you must hold on, Rain may douse your light within, your strength to carry on. He'll take upon your burdens and you'll never be alone, You will never have to face life on your own. Find hope in the Savior, never leave his side, His love will always guide you through. Listen to his teachings, swallow up the pride That kept you from his loving arms. You must press forward with a steadfast faith in Christ, Place all your hope in him. If you'll feast on his words enduring to the end, You'll have the blessings of eternal life. You'll have the blessings of eternal life.
