Your faithfulness my steadfast hope,
a tower to which my soul can flee
For refuge, peace, and strength to cope,
the total source of life for me.
To earthly pillars once I fled
and trusted them to hold me up,
To my demise I found instead
all earthly things are frail....corrupt.
The truth is, Lord, I still am prone
to grasp at things that I can see,
The difference is I'm not alone,
in faithfulness you're guiding me.
"Come unto me," your word commands,
and to these faithful words I cling,
I come to you just as I am,
my wounded needy soul I bring.
Lord make me what you'd have me be,
have mercy on my human ways,
Increase my faith that I will see
your footsteps through this earthly maze.
