Growing in Grace

Walking under the vast sky, I follow the path you lead

Within me, a seed, in fertile land you prepare

Fragile I am, but in Your hands, I find strength and shelter

Like a plant that grows slowly, under the watchful eye of a caring Father

And even when the hard shell, prevents me from seeing Your face

Grace comes, soft and pure, and all fear it does erase

For one day, I know it will be, Your light guiding my being

And the shells that surround me, by Your hand will be breaking

Still fragile, but secure, in Your love blossoming

Your plans are greater, and in You, I will be growing

Each step is a lesson, in the vast world to discover

Like a child who learns, each day to open further

A son I am, no longer alone, in Your grace I find myself

And on the journey of learning, it's Your love that I count on

In dejection, my soul, seeks the time to heal

But in Your zeal, oh Lord, you keep me safe at every dawn

For one day, I know it will be, Your light guiding my being

And the shells that surround me, by Your hand will be breaking

Still fragile, but secure, in Your love blossoming

Your plans are greater, and in You, I will be growing

I praise You, oh Father, for bringing me, from darkness into light

Warmed and transformed, by the love that in Christ leads

In dejection, my soul, seeks the time to heal

But in Your zeal, oh Lord, you keep me safe at every dawn

For one day, I know it will be, Your light guiding my being

And the shells that surround me, by Your hand will be breaking

Still fragile, but secure, in Your love blossoming

Your plans are greater, and in You, I will be growing
