[Verse 1] Early in the quiet When the day’s still thin I can feel the battle Deep behind my skin Little sparks of anger Little seeds of pride All of it is flowing From a well inside [Chorus] So I keep my heart with all diligence Guard the gate where the rivers run Every word Every step Every hidden intention Flows out Flows out from that one Let my eyes look straight before me Let my feet stay in the light Turn me not to the left or the right now Keep me walking Walking upright [Verse 2] Biting back a comment That would stain the air (mm) Taste it on my tongue tip Still I leave it there Teach these hurried lips Lord How to heal Not harm Let truth be the treasure That I choose to arm [Chorus] So I keep my heart with all diligence Guard the gate where the rivers run Every word Every step Every hidden intention Flows out Flows out from that one Let my eyes look straight before me Let my feet stay in the light Turn me not to the left or the right now Keep me walking Walking upright [Bridge] I will ponder every pathway I will weigh each quiet choice (yeah) Set my steps on solid roadway Tune my will to Your own voice When the crooked trail looks easy When the shadows call my name Lift my gaze and steady Steer me Back into the narrow flame [Chorus] I will keep my heart with all diligence Guard the gate where the rivers run Every word Every step Every hidden intention Flows out Flows out from that one Let my eyes look straight before me Let my feet stay in the light (stay in the light) Turn me not to the left or the right now Remove my foot from every lie Turn me not to the left or the right now Keep me walking Walking in life
