Good morning Daddy it’s a beautiful day The sun is shining our journey is on its way I grab Your hand and we take our first step With You next to me fear runs to the left When I am with You joy fills my heart May we always walk together never apart You are the One who leads me to still water I am Your child and You are my Father Every step I take is in sync with You my King I am never ever alone because You’re with me Even in the quiet spaces and lonely places You’re beside me to calm my heart as it races Every day is more time to spend with just us When I walk on my path it is treacherous Forgive me for walking steps away from You I surrender and jump back on the road with You You are holy and worthy regardless of my vision All I can see is fear and doubt there is collision Remove the blinders that these have given me This life is not mine but I live for Your glory
