Guiding Force

(alvin frazier)

Someone who finds themself in one of those dry places, shipwrecked even and the hope and glory which is in Christ prevails as the guiding force.

Verse 1

I hope and pray to see you face to face
This path that I’ve chosen to take has been leading me a stray
All of the tears that I’ve cried have formed a river
And I’m floating on a raft of hope until I’m delivered

Chorus

I lift my hands unto you
Cause I’m in need of your rescue
Marooned on an island of despair
I pray that it won’t be long until you get there
Until then I’ll wait for you to arrive
Because you are the guiding force my life

Verse 2

There have been times when I thought I might lose my mind
The ways of this world can be so heartless and unkind
Just on the verge of letting go
When I heard a voice telling me no
You heard my desperate plea
And began to set me free

Chorus

I lift my hands unto you
Cause I’m in need of your rescue
Marooned on an island of despair
I pray that it won’t be long until you get there
Until then I’ll wait for you to arrive
Because you are the guiding force my life
