The Journey Home



 

Don't worry about anything,
For don't you know it's true,
A loving God has launched the ship
That gently carries you.

Each boat that sails the sea of life
That rocks with every storm,
Is guided through the straits of faith
To a harbor safe and warm.

The Hand that knit you in the womb
Will never cease to care,
A ballast in the wildest wind
A love that's always there.

For no one lives but by His grace
And given is each breath,
Well known the time of every birth
The hour of every death.

And each man hears a special call
That beckons him alone,
While God provides along the way
The stars that guide him home.
