Footsteps in the sand

I was running through the fire, couldn’t see the light ahead

Carried all my broken dreams, the words I never said

Thunder in my spirit, the weight of all my plans

Then You reached right down and pulled me with Your hands

Now every scar reminds me, You never let me go

Even when I doubted, Your love still overflowed

Footsteps in the sand, You were walking next to me

When I fell and couldn’t stand, You carried faithfully

Through the storm and through the night, You gave me strength to fight

Now I see Your perfect plan—

Footsteps in the sand

Every tear that hit the tide became a song of grace

Every moment I was lost, You led me to this place

Now I’m dancing in the sunlight, I’m stronger than before

You lifted me from shadows to love forevermore

Now every mile behind me shows mercy in the pain

You turned my fear to freedom, washed it in the rain

Footsteps in the sand, You were walking next to me

When I fell and couldn’t stand, You carried faithfully

Through the storm and through the night, You gave me strength to fight

Now I see Your perfect plan—

Footsteps in the sand

I’ll keep moving forward, with You I’m never alone

Even when I’m breaking, You’re the fire in my bones

And when the waves crash down again, I’ll remember where we’ve been

You carried me, You carried me—Amen

Footsteps in the sand, now I finally understand

Every trial, every tear, was part of Your hand

Now I rise and testify, Your love will never die

I’m forever where I stand—

Footsteps in the sand

You carried me, You lifted me

Through every storm and strand

Now I walk beside Your love—

Footsteps in the sand
