WALKING BESIDE ME
Music & lyrics by timothy Neil Tegge

I went walking in the rain
I didn't care where I was going
There was something troubling me
And the feeling was growing

I thought if I could walk long enough
All the answers would come to me
But miles away and soaking wet
I still felt so empty

Once I knew I'd lost my way
I dropped down to my knees
And I let it all pour out
"Oh Lord, won't you help me please"

"Help me carry this weight that I bear
Won't you walk in these shoes that I wear
I'm carrying such a heavy load
Won't you shine your light upon my road
I'm looking for a hand to guide me
Won't you walk beside me, Lord?
Won't you walk beside me, Lord?"

That night I drifted off to sleep
And a dream ran through my head
The Lord appeared to me
and this is what He said

"Whenever you're lost I'll come find you
If you forget me, I will remind you
When you fall down I will pick you up
If you're thirsty you can drink from my cup
When you need someone to guide you
I'll be walking beside you
I'll be walking beside you"

When I woke the clouds were gone
and the rain dripped from the trees
The sun was shining bright
There was a new song on the breeze

I'm singing that song of praise now
For your love has brightened up my days now
Wherever I go You are close at hand
Won't you lead me to your promised land
I still need someone to guide me
Keep walking beside me, Lord
Keep walking beside me, Lord
Keep walking beside me, Lord

Keep on walking beside me
Keep on walking beside me
Keep on walking beside me
Keep on walking beside me

Wherever I go you are close at hand
Keep on walking beside me
You Take me to the promised land
Keep on walking beside me
You Bring me so much peace of mind
Keep on walking beside me
You turn my water into wine
Keep on walking beside me
Keep on walking beside me
Keep on walking beside me
