Every Mile

Verse 1 I’ve walked some miles in these shoes, truth I can’t deny From house to house, town to town, searching for the why Every step I ever took, it led me back to You Looking back, I see it clear—you carried me right through I thought I walked alone, but You were always there Even when I chose to sin, You met me in despair Through the storms and broken roads, You never let me fall When I drifted from Your will, You still would hear my call You took me from the chaos, set my feet on solid ground Pulled me from the noise of life, away from every sound I can’t imagine one more day just trying on my own Now I know the truth—I was never on my own Hook / Chorus Every mile I walked, You were right there Through the pain, through the storm, through the warfare When I strayed, You still called my name Now I walk with You, I’ll never be the same Every step I take, yeah You light the way Turn my night to dawn, bring a brighter day Side by side, I don’t walk in fear Jesus, You’ve been with me every mile, every year Verse 2 Yeah these miles I’ve walked, leave a story to be told Of a heart once lost, now a faith that’s bold It was always You, Lord, that carried me through Building me up, making all things new You pulled me from my sin, when I couldn’t break free Opened up my eyes, now I finally see Every step I take, yeah the path gets clear Now I walk with You, I ain’t living in fear No more looking back at the life I knew ‘Cause the road I’m on now, it’s leading me to You From the pew to the street, I’ll proclaim Your truth Every mile I walk, I give glory to You Bridge (Spoken – ESV) Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil For You are with me, Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me (Psalm 23:4) Trust in the Lord with all your heart, lean not on your own understanding In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make straight your paths (Proverbs 3:5–6) The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps (Proverbs 16:9) Verse 3 Through the valley low, yeah I felt that weight Dark clouds all around, thought it might be too late But Your Word cut through like a light in the night Showed me even in the dark, You were right by my side I was chasing my own way, trying to take control But every road I took just was draining my soul Had to lay it all down, every plan, every pride Now I follow Your lead, walking close by Your side You established my steps when I couldn’t stand Took a broken man and You raised him again Now my path stays straight ‘cause I trust in Your name Ain’t the man I was before, I’ll never be the same Hook / Chorus (Final) Every mile I walked, You were right there Through the pain, through the storm, through the warfare When I strayed, You still called my name Now I walk with You, I’ll never be the same Every step I take, yeah You light the way Turn my night to dawn, bring a brighter day Side by side, I don’t walk in fear Jesus, You’ve been with me every mile, every year
