"Because of your great compassion you did not abandon them in the desert. By day the pillar of cloud did not cease to guide them on their path, nor the pillar of fire by night to shine on the way they were to take. You gave your good Spirit to instruct them. You did not withhold your manna from their mouths, and you gave them water for their thirst. For forty years you sustained them in the desert; they lacked nothing, their clothes did not wear out nor did their feet become swollen." -Nehemiah 9:19-21
I thank God that He does not leave us in the desert
I praise Him for His provision and His grace
I know His pillar goes before me
As I tread onwards towards a Heavenly place
Your promises bring peace to a weary soul
Joy to a life filled with fear
Comfort to a breaking and bleeding heart
Compassion as Your love draws me near
Renew this tired travelers hope, dear Lord
Return this heart fully towards home
Receive these praises from tired lips
Redirect these feet as they roam
Bring forth a steadfast Spirit
Shine light on the next shaky steps
Hold fast to Your servant, O Holy One
Plant boldness where it isn't yet
I thank You, Lord, for not leaving me
A constant Friend in this sometimes lonely place
I continue on this path I know
Towards Your indescribably beautiful face
