In the still of the morning when I open God's Word
With a yearning for my soul to be stirred
He talks to me through that Book of Old
His words more precious than silver or gold
He sends me out in-to the world
With strength to face another day
I know down deep that my sinful heart
On its own would go astray
On its own would go so far astray
The Lord is my Sheppard, I shall not want
My refuge and my confidant
He protects me from the devil's charms
Wraps me in his loving arms
He sends me out in-to the world
With strength to face another day
I know down deep that my sinful heart
On its own would go astray
On its own would go so far astray
The Holy Spirit lives inside of me
My compa** when I'm lost at sea
He walks with me, my daily guide
Points me back to heaven and away from my pride
He sends me out in-to the world
With strength to face another day
I know down deep that my sinful heart
On its own would go astray
On its own would go so far astray
