take another step

Well the band was playing, the flags were waving
And there you were
In the middle of a sunny day parade
The crowds were cheering, the sky was clear
Not a worry in the world
Marching on sure and steady, strong and straight
Take another step and another step and another step

Then the lightning flashed the thunder crashed
And suddenly
It began to rain and everybody ran
Then the sky went black as midnight
And you couldn't see
Paralyzed by what you just can't understand
And now here you are
You're afraid to move
You don't know where to go
You don't know what to do

Take another step, take another step
When the road ahead is dark
And you don't know where to go
Take another step, take another step
Trust God and take another step
And another step and another step
Take another step and another step and another step

We walk by faith and not by sight we know it's true
We say it and sing it and love the way it sounds
But none of us can even begin to truly understand
What it really means '
Til all the lights go out
And there we are nothing to hold on to
But the promises God's made to me and you

Take another step, take another step
When the road ahead is dark
And you don't know where to go
Take another step, take another step
Trust God and take another step

If there's an ocean in front of you
You know what you've gotta do
Take another step and another step
Maybe he'll turn the water into land
And maybe he'll take your hand and say
Let's take a walk on the waves
Will you trust me either way
And take another step
Take another step

Take another step
Take another step
Trust God and take another step
Take another step
When the road ahead is dark
And you don't know where to go
Take another step
Take another step
Trust God and take another step
And another step and another step
Take another step and another step and another step
Take another step and another step and another step
Take another step and another step and another step
