[Verse 1] The landlord slid a letter underneath my door Red ink on the counter, bills across the floor Coffee turning bitter by the unpaid stack Morning on the radio, and I can’t take it back [Pre-Chorus] My heart is shaking, but I know where help is found I will not lean on what I see when everything falls down [Chorus] So I will put on truth when the doubts come calling Put on righteousness when my strength is falling I’ll walk in peace though the road is steep Lift up the shield of faith when the arrows reach With salvation on my mind and Your Word in my hand I may be afraid, but by Your grace I’ll stand Lord, direct my steps when I can’t see the way I’ll trust You and open the door anyway [Verse 2] The doctor left a message I was scared to play My little girl asked me, “Daddy, are we okay?” I counted every step from the bed to the sink Some mornings faith is just too worn out to think [Pre-Chorus] So I washed one cup and prayed one prayer Put both feet on the floor and remembered You were there [Chorus] So I will put on truth when the doubts come calling Put on righteousness when my strength is falling I’ll walk in peace though the road is steep Lift up the shield of faith when the arrows reach With salvation on my mind and Your Word in my hand I may be afraid, but by Your grace I’ll stand Lord, direct my steps when I can’t see the way I’ll trust You and open the door anyway [Bridge] I do not have to understand the road beneath my feet I only have to trust the One who goes ahead of me When all I have is one small stone, one trembling prayer to pray Your Spirit is my strength to stand and face another day The enemy may whisper, the dark may press in close But Your Word becomes a sword against the fear I hold And when I have done all I know to do, when I have no words left to say I will stand, I will pray, I will trust You anyway [Final Chorus] I’ll put on truth when the doubts come calling Put on righteousness when my strength is falling I’ll walk in peace though the road is steep Lift up the shield of faith when the arrows reach With salvation on my mind and Your Word in my hand I may be afraid, but by Your grace I’ll stand Lord, direct my steps through the night into day I’ll trust You and open the door anyway [Outro] Bills on the table, dawn through the glass I don’t know what is coming, but I know this too shall pass I will not lean upon my fear or what my eyes can see In every road, in every door, Lord, lead the way for me One foot, then another One prayer, then I obey Trusting You with all my heart I open the door anyway.
