[Intro — Fingerpicked guitar, low Hammond B3, solitary harmonica] [Bubba — spoken, male] There's a difference between knowing where the road goes and knowing who's leading you. Lord, I could use Your help with both. [Verse 1 — Bubba, male] To You, O Lord, I lift my soul, I've walked some miles I couldn't control. I'm putting my trust in Your steady hand; Don't let the ones against me bring me shame. Show me Your ways when the crossroads bend, Teach me Your paths from beginning to end. Lead me in truth through the fog and rain, You're the God of my rescue; I'll wait on Your name. [Pre-Chorus — Darlene, female] All through the day when I don't know what to do, I'll set my hope on You. [Chorus — Bubba and Darlene, duet] Show me Your roads, Lord, teach me Your way, One little step of faith today. Remember Your mercy, not the wrong I've done, Guide these wandering feet toward the morning sun. When I can't see tomorrow, I'll trust what You know; Take my hand, Lord, show me Your roads. [Verse 2 — Darlene, female lead] Remember Your kindness from long ago, Your faithful love that never lets go. Don't count the sins of my younger years, The careless words and the wasted tears. For Your goodness' sake, remember me, Give this burdened heart a chance to be free. You teach the humble to walk what's right, You lead the lowly into the light. [Bubba — male, response] Mercy and truth on the road You make, I'll follow Your word with each step I take. [Chorus — Darlene lead, Bubba harmony] Show me Your roads, Lord, teach me Your way, One little step of faith today. Remember Your mercy, not the wrong I've done, Guide these wandering feet toward the morning sun. When I can't see tomorrow, I'll trust what You know; Take my hand, Lord, show me Your roads. [Instrumental — Harmonica cries, tenor sax replies; blues guitar bends] [Bridge — Piano and organ, hushed confession] [Bubba — male] For Your name's sake, forgive my sin, The weight of it has worn me thin. My eyes stay fixed on You alone; Pull my feet from the nets they've thrown. [Darlene — female] Turn toward me, Lord, I'm lonely tonight, My troubles are many, my heart's pulled tight. See my affliction, hear what I pray, Guard my soul and lead me away. [Final Chorus — Full band, handclaps, soft gospel choir] Show us Your roads, Lord, teach us Your way, Give us the courage to trust and obey. Remember Your mercy, not the wrong we've done, Guide Your children home by the rising sun. Let integrity keep us wherever we go; Take our hands, Lord, show us Your roads. [Outro — Bubba and Darlene, quiet duet] [Bubba — male] My hope is in You. [Darlene — female] My hope is in You. [Both] Redeem Your people, Lord, and bring us through. [End — Warm harmonica, Hammond B3 resolves]
