Footprints

[Verse 1]
Oh, it's amazing, flipping these pages
What's happened through all these years
Down in the basement, looking through the ages
I can see it so clear

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Things from this old house
Really mean something now

[Chorus 1]
Like that poem that I used to hear
Hanging 'round everywhere
I used to write it off
Just a picture on the wall
But now that I've lived some life
Been through some bitter times
I can understand
That one set of footprints in the sand

[Verse 2]
Oh, those lonely roads that I walked
Sleepless nights that I thought
I was on my own
But those footprints behind me
They tell the story
You carried me all along

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Things aren't what they seem
Sometimes there's more than what we see

[Chorus 1]
Like that poem that I used to hear
Hanging 'round everywhere
I used to write it off
Just a picture on the wall
But now that I've lived some life
Been through some bitter times
I can understand
That one set of footprints in the sand

[Interlude]

[Bridge]
And when I stop to look back
I can see Your faithfulness
Written in the prints that You leave
You are more than here with me
Oh, Lord, You carry me
You are my strength when I'm weak

[Pre-Chorus 3]
I see what's ahead of me
When I look back

[Chorus 2]
At that poem that I used to hear
I saw it everywhere
I used to write it off
Now it's hanging on my wall
I still have some life to live
One thing, I'm sure of it
You'll be with me to the end
And I see that one set of Your footprints again

[Outro]
You carry me, You carry me
So I can rest, I can rest
You carry me, You carry me
So I can rest, I can rest
You carry me, You carry me
So I can rest, I can rest
You carry me, You carry me
So I can rest, I can rest
