You're the Author of my faith
and You've got a plan to perfect it!
You're the designer of my way,
then You guard and You protect it.
You're the Shepherd of Your people,
Your eye is on each one.
You won't let me wander far
before You call me, guide me, overcome.
I may try to plan it out,
I may try to dream it up,
but You O Lord direct my steps,
You ordain the way for us.
You're the Author and the Shepherd,
You outline my life-to-be,
then You take my hand and walk,
never to forsake me.
Continue Your good work--
I love what You've foreseen.
Keep me close on the path with You,
it's far better than I dreamed!
