I walk along these winding roads Carrying questions in my heart All my life I’ve searched for shelter Still I wander in the dark I have walked through joy and sorrow Watched so many people change Sometimes in the rush of living I forget You walk with me I search for God along life’s road Through the laughter and the tears I search for You through wind and rain When I don’t know where to go I search for You throughout the night When no one else is by my side And somewhere in the deepest silence I hear You softly call my name Sometimes I searched for wealth and gold Thinking more would make me whole Sometimes I chased after glory Thinking it would heal my soul Sometimes I searched in human love Hoping it would keep me warm But when love had disappeared I found myself alone again I search for God along life’s road Through the laughter and the tears I search for You through wind and rain When I don’t know where to go I search for You throughout the night When no one else is by my side And somewhere in the deepest silence I hear You softly call my name There were roads where I had fallen With no strength to rise again I asked why You remained silent When my life was filled with pain But within my deepest sorrow I began to understand You had never once abandoned me I just failed to see Your hand You are there among the poor In the tears that no one sees In the hearts that choose forgiveness In the hands that give with love You are there within my prayer In a small light through the night When I leave my anger behind me And learn to live with a gentle heart I search for God along life’s road Now I know You’re never far Not beyond the highest heavens Not somewhere beyond the stars You are walking with me daily Through the roads of this earthly life Though my weary feet keep stumbling You will never leave my side Someday when my steps grow weaker And my road is near its end I still pray that I may follow Walking closely after You All my life I searched to find You Through so many restless years Then I turned toward the silence And I found You dwelling here I search for God along life’s road And I find You in my heart When my soul no longer runs away When I learn to love and forgive Though tomorrow storms may find me I no longer walk alone For upon every road before me You are walking there with me.
