play Traveling Mercies
from Something Beautiful For God: 24 Songs For Worship and Group SingingLove the journey
God is with us on every road
Traveling mercies
Love the journey
God is with us all the way home
A simple blessing that's often spoken
When it is time to take to the road
A benediction to send us forward
Trusting the Spirit will lead us home
Chorus
Christ goes before us, Christ walks behind us
Christ all around us, Christ deep inside
Christ in our laughter and in our sorrow
Christ in our darkness, burning with Light
Chorus
Sometimes our feet take two good steps forward
Only to fall back ten steps behind
God's walking with us, we're being guided
Grace often writes straight with crooked lines
Chorus
