Walking Humbly

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I used to live in arrogance,

I walked this life alone,

Believing I was in control

And each choice was my own.

 

I didn’t understand, back then

The power of mercy.

I thought that I knew what was right

And how things ought to be.

 

I had no room for oversight,

For rules someone else made.

I was the master of my path

The one voice I obeyed.

 

Then, Lord, You called me to Your side,

And I answered Your call.

I forgot all the rules I’d made,

They meant nothing at all.

 

Now I walk humbly on Your path,

Mercy and grace I give

To all who walk this life with me.

By Your Word, Lord, I live.

 

Micah 6:8

He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.
