about

Despite looking into the abyss many times, I’ve always been drawn back to the bedrock of a God who loves me, sometimes despite my own intentions. I Will Exalt You and Step By Step come out of that experience.

lyrics

I look to you when I am stranded
Under these dark and angry skies
I reach for you when I am sinking
And, step by step, I walk to you.

If I should doubt you
You would not turn from me
You would not leave me,
Would not abandon me.
If I should trust you
Then I might see your face,
Then I might see your face and live.

Jesus my Lord, my God and Saviour
When will you come and rescue me?
When will you wipe the tears of my suffering?
When will you come and walk with me?

You are my light, bright beacon in darkness,
You are the flame that leads me through.
You are my guide who moves me through sorrow
And, step by step, I walk with you.
