My Lord Knows the Way

Last night, Beau was having trouble falling asleep. I called him to my lap and he lay there for a bit while I rubbed his back and sang to him. (This is when Nana skills are necessary.)

I sang some of the same songs I have sung to him since he was born, some of the same songs I used to sing to his mother when I would scratch her back while she fell asleep.

I sang Sunday School songs. The songs I learned when I wasn't even as old as he is now. Songs that comfort my heart to this day.

My Lord knows the way through the wilderness,

All I have to do is follow.

My Lord knows the way through the wilderness,

All I have to do is follow.

Strength for today is mine all the way

And all that I need for tomorrow.

My Lord knows the way through the wilderness,

All I have to do is follow.

AND

He's able! He's able! I know He's able!

I know my Lord is able to carry me through.

He's able! He's able! I know He's able!

I know my Lord is able to carry me through.

He heals the broken hearted,

And He sets the captive free.

He makes the lame to walk again,

And he makes the blind to see.

He's able! He's able! I know He's able!

I know my Lord is able to carry my through.

AND

When we walk with the Lord,

In the light of His word,

What a glory He sheds on our way.

While we do His good will,

He abides with us still,

And with all who will trust and obey.

Trust and obey,

For there's no other way,

To be happy in Jesus,

But to trust and obey.

Beau fell asleep. I felt much better. It's a win-win.
