stand up straight and follow me

THE WORDS

Every line, a little closer.

I Woke up this morning, rain tapping on my door, Looking for forgiveness, as I stare down at the floor That still small voice, whispered into my ear Stand up straight and follow me, there is nothing to fear Son you’ve travelled thru the storms, and I have been beside you No need to hang your head, no need to hide you My sindebt was intense, but with you I am not alone Your path lays before me, and I walk on your sacred stones There is a light that guides me, and I know your son my sins will atone There is a light that guides me, and I know your son my sins will atone Woke up this morning, rain tapping on my door, Looking for forgiveness, as I stare down at the floor That still small voice, whispered into my ear Stand up straight and follow me, there is nothing to fear The worlds troubles were commanding my soul But with your blessings, you are taking me home I stopped by a church and I am blessed by the choir singing I have gone inside to join them, your praises I am ringing Woke up this morning, rain tapping on my door, Looking for forgiveness, as I stare down at the floor That still small voice, whispered into my ear Stand up straight and follow me, there is nothing to fear The songs carry up to the skies, praising and worshipping you I will now keep walking your path, and tell everyone your word is true The darkness of this life sometimes surrounds me But now I have tasted the living water, I will be off to eternity Woke up this morning, rain tapping on my door, Looking for forgiveness, as I stare down at the floor That still small voice, whispered into my ear Stand up straight and follow me, there is nothing to fear This world no longer comforts me, taking away my pain For in you I have eternal life, and I count it all gain Father God your loving arms are holding me tight My sinful nature will not put up a fight Woke up this morning, rain tapping on my door, Looking for forgiveness, as I stare down at the floor That still small voice, whispered into my ear Stand up straight and follow me, there is nothing to fear
