Strength for the journey (Michael John Poirier)


I will be, I will be,
I will be strength for the journey
I will be, I will be,
I will be strength for the journey

There is a road meant for you to travel.
Narrow and steep is the shepherd’s way.
And as you say Yes,
letting me guide you
I will be strength for the journey…

Refrain

There is a cross meant for you to carry,
there is a cross meant for you alone,
and as you bow down
in humble surrender,
I will be strength for the journey…

Refrain

How many times have you doubted my word?
How many times must I call your name?
And as you say, Yes,
letting me love you,
I will be strength for the journey….

Refrain
