Twenty-Six Summers

I don't know what the future holds
Or what lies beyond my horizon
The years ahead are just out of sight
Well, I think sometimes that You hide them
So that I'll walk by faith not sight
So I'll take Your hand, holding tight

Through twenty-six summers
And twenty-six winters
I've laughed in the springtime
I've cried in the rain
Though I've questioned the meaning
Of some of life's seasons
It's true that they've left me holding on
Tighter to You

My one desire for the road ahead
Is that we would walk it together
Friend and King, You're my everything
May I stay by Your side forever
For when my heart's afraid, You're near
Whispering to my soul, ‘don't fear'

And I will trust in You alone
For You're the hand leading me home
Leading me home..

I've spent twenty-six summers
And twenty-six winters with You
Through all of the seasons
And my search for reasons
You've carried me through
I will keep holding on to You…
