In Your ways, I humbly trod.
By grace, I seek Your face;
My weary soul finds hiding place.

When shadows fall and sorrow weeps,
Your grace abounds; my spirit leaps.
When darkness creeps and brings me fear,
I trust in You; Your presence near.

I call Your name in prayer,
My life is safe within Your care.
In this dry and weary land,
Your steadfast love helps me stand.

My lips shall ever sing Your praise;
In Your faithfulness, I do rejoice.
In Your sanctuary, I gaze upon You;
My soul is at rest; Your promises true.
