take my hand & walk.

i hate it when i like a song that i shouldn't like. this song came on the radio today as i was flipping through stations, & my first thought was 'why the heck are they still playing this stuff?' it's from the christian band 'the kry,' circa 1994. old. cheesy. i think the band had mullets when they played this song. but i listened to it &, damn it, i liked it. what can i say, sometimes God uses strange things to get my attention...

i know there are times
your dreams turn to dust
you wonder as you cry
why it has to hurt so much
give Me all your sadness
someday you will know the reason why
with a child-like heart
simply put your trust in Me

take My hand & walk where I lead
keep your eyes on Me alone
don't say "why were the old days better?"
just because you're scared of the unknown
take My hand & walk

don't live in the past
cause yesterday's gone
wishing memories would last
you're afraid to carry on
you don't know what's coming
but you know the One who holds tomorrow
I will be your guide
take you through the night
if you keep your eyes on Me

take my hand & walk where I lead
keep your eyes on Me alone
don't say "why were the old days better?"
just because you're afraid of the unknown
take My hand & walk where I lead
you will never be alone
faith is to be sure of what you hope for
& the evidence of things unseen
so take my hand & walk

just like a child
holding daddy's hand
don't let go of mine
you know you can't stand
on your own

take my hand & walk.

christy -

i applaud your willingness to post cheese. there are so many songs on my ipod that i quickly skip past when on random. sometimes things strike us...

i am so afraid of the unknown, and i hold onto the past. there is some pretty great wisdom there. how do we balance the gift of the past, while also pressing onto the future?
