I see footprints in the sand

As God takes my hand

They show where I’ve been

The faith that helped me win

All the lessons I’ve learned

The stripes I’ve earned

The naysayers I ignore

How God fills me to the core

Things made just for me

What’s truly meant to be

I see all my dreams

Why I burst at the seams

How I always pray

How God leads every day

I see God’s word

The one I’ve always heard

I see God’s conditional love

Everything in heaven above

I see how I changed my view

All the things God can do

And my God given purpose

Lying at the surface

I see footprints in the sand

They’re all over the land

They show my soul

What makes me whole

All the steps I take

The memories I make

How I sit still

As I accept God’s will

I see how fear went away

How I live every day

All the things I’ve known

How I’ve always grown

I see the road I’ve traveled

Why my soul never unraveled

How I learned my name

Why I let go of shame

And God holding my hand

In footprints in the sand
