Every Step of the Way

Lyrics

Looking over my shoulder I see things that might have been Things I thought that I needed Slipped through my fingers Time and time again Doors were opening and closing And I couldn't see the reasons why Thought for a moment You'd left me But it turns out You were there all the time Over mountains, through the valleys Even when I turned away Always walking right beside me You've been with me all my days You will never leave me lonely You won't treat me that way When I stand, when I fall Lord, You're with me Every step of the way Yeah, yeah, yeah, mm-mmm... You know my mama, she told me I was holding an unseen hand I learned my lessons at Sunday school And I read something 'Bout footprints in the sand Mmm, soon I came to discover That the books winds up on the shelf Yeah, I started learning the hard way And I found out for myself Over mountains, through the valleys Even when I turned away Always walking right beside me You've been with me all my days You will never leave me lonely You won't treat me that way When I stand, when I fall Lord, You're with me Every step of the way, yeah Mmm, there ain't no mountain too high There ain't no valley too low Nothing on earth can separate me from You There ain't no river too wide There ain't no ocean too deep There has never been a single moment You weren't with me, yeah No, no, no, no You will never leave me lonely You won't do me that way When I stand, when I fall You'll be with me (Mountains, valleys) Every step of the way, yeah (When I turned away) Always walking right beside me You'll be with me all my days (every step of the way) You will never leave me lonely You won't treat me that way When I stand, when I fall You'll be with me Every step of the way, mmm... Every step of the way, yeah
