Show me your ways, Lord, teach me your paths. (Psalm 25:4)
Teach Me Your Paths.
Which way should I go, Lord?
I have so many options before me.
I have so many voices that clamor for my attention.
Show me your ways, Lord.
Teach me your paths.
Guide me in your truth and teach me,
for you are God my Savior,
and my hope is in you all day long.
I can try to be my own guide through the maze of this world,
but that doesn't usually turn out well.
I can imitate what I see on TV and the movies,
but then I'm not really myself.
I know that when I get off-path
I may stumble and fall,
or get lost.
Show me your ways, Lord, teach me your paths.
The bookstore is full of self-help aisles,
each book promising happiness.
Where will I really find happiness and well-being?
Where will I find wisdom, truth?
Show me your ways, Lord, teach me your paths.
Of all the options before me, I can only choose one.
I can only serve one master.
I choose to serve you, Lord.
With all my heart.
Show me your ways, Lord, teach me your paths.
