the paths we walk

Another song from the weekend gathering, this one by Heather and Katie, who sang it during communion. The lyrics of the first verse are changed a little from this early recording by Katie:

"The Paths We Walk"

We were not strong
We were not wise
We looked on your light and we closed our eyes
When for your love
Dying alone
You broke us and healed us and made us your own

Though the paths we walk may be dark indeed
Though the paths we walk may be dark
We trust you, we know you Lord

You hear our cry
You hear our call
When the storm is so raging and we are so small
The only reason
Our souls still stand
Is the wine and the bread we've been fed by your hands

In that dark valley
You know so well
You shielded us from the powers of hell
We have wept at the touch
Of death's hand in the night
We have danced at the dawning of your holy light

We wait for you
We wait for you
We wait for you and we will rise
