The Footprints Of My King

[MIRIAM JACOB]

The Footprints Of My King

Oh, what a day it was to me
when Jesus saved my soul,
The washing, cleansing river
that came in to make me whole.
I never have regretted
that sweet day for all I live.
A King to be my everything
through the power when He forgives.
But that day of my salvation
was just a start for me.
For He began walking through my life
in ways that I could see.
In heartache...He was the Comforter
and in pain, He gave relief.
He washed my tears with tenderness
through every mile of grief.
Through times of life's injustices
He was mighty to defend.
And when I needed wisdom's heart
He gave it without end.
Where exhaustion beckoned me to fall
His mercy gave me rest.
And when the world gave me its very worst
He offered me His best.
There were times I stood on mountaintops
and shined in life's successes.
And I saw Him hold my trophies up
to prove that He still blesses.
One day this life will move aside
for the treasure the next one brings.
But through seasons here...I've seen the footprints
of my Everlasting King.
