Lord, as I seek your guidance for the day,
I find my thoughts unyielding: confusion clouds my way,
But, then when I bow to you, the challenges you guide me through,
Your promises are ever new: I claim them for today.
Your will cannot lead me where your grace cannot keep me.
Your hand will protect me: I rest in your care.
Your eyes will watch over me: Your love will forgive me.
And when I am faltering, I still will find you there.
Each new day’s design is guided by your hand,
And graciously revealed as I seek your Master plan.
Keep my footsteps faithful when from you I go.
Return me to the joy that your blessings can bestow.
Your will cannot lead me where your grace cannot keep me.
Your hand will protect me: I rest in your care.
Your eyes will watch over me: Your love will forgive me.
And when I am faltering, I still will find you there.
Your eyes will watch over me,
Your love will forgive me,
And when I am faltering,
Lord, I will find you there.
I heard this song on my "Pendragon Sword of His Father" soundtrack. On the CD a couple of the lyrics were slightly change and some of the quotes from the movie were read in the middle of the song.
Here are the quotes:
"Whatever happens, remember... what God calls us to do, He gives the grace to accomplish, the strength to live, or die, for His glory."
"God does not call men to futility; those who follow Him are part of a master plan."
This song is so inspiring and comforting to me! I hope it is to you as well!
In Christ,

P.S. In case you were wondering what the changed lines were I have written them below.
"Your hand will protect me"
to
"Though storms swirl about me,"
and
" Keep my footsteps faithful when from you I go.Return me to the joy that your blessings can bestow."
to
" Keep me ever faithful when dreams give way to fears, and guide me on Your path, through the days and through the years."
