[Intro] [Music] [Music] [Verse] I dreamt about the Lord, We walked along the beach. Visions of my life displayed, He was always within reach. As I looked back at my life, I saw I was not alone. For when I looked into the sand, Two sets of footprints shown. He said He was with me, All along the way. Guiding and protecting me, Each and every day. [Chorus] You always walked beside me, Through my peace and strife. You never left my side, All throughout my life. You always walked beside me, You took me by the hand. If I ever had a doubt, I saw your footprints in the sand. I saw your footprints in the sand. [Verse] As I watched in joy, All our footprints along the ground. My heart began to sink, At something I had found. There were times along the way, That chilled me to the bone. One set of footprints was gone, I walked the path alone. I turned to Him to ask, Because I just had to know. "Why did you leave me Lord? Wherever did you go?" [Chorus] You always walked beside me, It was a source of pride. You said you never left me, I can't believe you lied. You always walked beside me, I followed where you led. And in a tender voice, He looked to me and said. [Verse] My precious child I love you, Please don't be deceived. I was always there with you, I would never leave. When you saw one set, Of footprints in the sand, You never walked the path alone, For that was not my plan. I was there in all your trials, You never left my veiw. For when you only saw one set, That's when I carried you. [Chorus] You always walked beside me, Through my peace and strife. You never left my side, All throughout my life. You always walked beside me, You took me by the hand. If I ever had a doubt, I saw your footprints in the sand. I saw your footprints in the sand. You always walked beside me. [Finale]
