(Spoken)
Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you, you would walk with me all the way. But I noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life there’s only one set of footsteps. I don’t understand why in times I needed you most you should leave me. And the Lord replied, “My precious, precious child, I love you. And I would never, never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you saw only one set of footprints, it was then that I was carrying you.
(Sung)
One set of footprints in the sand
Oh yes, at last I understand
Through every storm he carried me now I praise the lord every time I see
One set of footprints in the sand
One set of footprints in the sand
