Step by Step
Verse 1
Through this maze of life I wander,
Wondering which path I should take.
Questioning, I look for answers,
So many choices I must make.
Verse 2
Through the paths of life I stumble,
Often falling into snares.
Is there freedom from this bondage,
Or am I doomed to bleak despair?
Verse 3
Through this maze I seek an answer.
What is the price and who will pay.
Only Jesus, Lord and master,
Will guide my steps and lead the way.
Chorus
Step by step, I'll follow Jesus.
Step by step, I will not roam.
Step by step, I know he'll guide me.
He paid the price, He'll lead me home.
