[Verse 1] When the morning asks its question, When the road divides in two, I remember who walks beside me, And the promise pulling through. I keep Jehovah always before me, His counsel steadies every step; With him there at my right hand, I can face what lies ahead. [Chorus] I will not be shaken, I will not turn away; I’ll choose the path that pleases you, And trust you day by day. When fear comes close and voices rise, Your faithful words remain; I keep Jehovah before me, And stand firm through the strain. [Verse 2] Ten came back with fearful stories, Made the promised country seem Like a place no heart could enter, Like a lost and foolish dream. But Joshua and Caleb spoke with courage, Trusting what Jehovah said; Would I follow fear’s loud warning, Or the truth that lies ahead? [Chorus] I will not be shaken, I will not turn away; I’ll choose the path that pleases you, And trust you day by day. When fear comes close and voices rise, Your faithful words remain; I keep Jehovah before me, And stand firm through the strain. [Instrumental Interlude] [Child Guest Verse] When the crowd says, “You can’t do it,” I can ask what’s right and true; I can listen, I can trust him, I can choose what honors you. [Bridge] Let me picture that decision, Let me weigh the words I hear; Love for you can quiet panic, And make the next step clear. [Final Chorus] I will not be shaken, I will not turn away; I’ll choose the path that pleases you, And trust you day by day. With Jehovah at my right hand, I’ll keep faith when trials remain; I keep Jehovah before me, And stand firm through the strain. [Outro] Always before me, At my right hand, I’ll stand.
