Verse 1
I walked with You when the road was steady
Hand in hand, I thought my heart was ready
I trusted every step You laid ahead
Believed You when You said, “I’ve got this, child.”
I carried faith like a candle flame
Shielded it from doubt, from fear, from rain
I spoke her name in whispered prayer
Asked You gently, “Please keep her here.”
Pre-Chorus
I never walked away
I never cursed Your name
I just don’t understand
Why love still ends in pain
Chorus
God, I walked with You, I didn’t run
I believed the promise, I believed the Son
So why did You take her from my arms that day
To let her run free where the angels play
I know she’s dancing in the promised lands
But You carved her heartbeat into my hands
I walked with You… so tell me why
You had to take my baby to the sky
Verse 2
They say the fields are golden and wide
Where no tears fall and no hearts hide
Where every child is safe and whole
Wrapped in light, wrapped in home
But I was ready to break for her
To bleed, to ache, to suffer more
I would’ve carried every cross
If it meant she wasn’t lost
Pre-Chorus
I still kneel, I still pray
Even when my voice gives way
I believe You’re good and true
But tonight, I’m angry too
Chorus
God, I walked with You, I stayed in faith
I praised You even in the wait
So why did You take her far from me
To play in fields I cannot see
I know she’s held in perfect peace
Where pain and sorrow finally cease
But I walked with You… and still I cry
Why heaven needed her more than I
Bridge
If You’re teaching me something, I can’t see it yet
If there’s purpose buried in this regret
Hold my heart while I fall apart
Don’t let this grief destroy my trust
Tell her I love her every day
That her mama never looked away
That I’ll meet her where the flowers grow
When You say it’s time for me to go
Final Chorus
God, I’ll keep walking though I’m torn
Still holding faith though I’m worn
I’ll believe again, even through the pain
Even when I don’t understand Your plan
She’s laughing now, no tears, no fear
But every breath still aches down here
I walked with You… and I still do
I just miss her more than You ever knew
Outro
So until the day You call me home
Until I cross that field of gold
Watch over her… hold her tight
And help me survive this lonely night
