Take Heart, My Friend

Fernando Ortega


Take heart, my friend, we'll go together 
This uncertain road that lies ahead 
Our faithful God has always gone before us 
And He will lead the way once again 

Take heart, my friend, we can walk together 
And if our burdens become too great 
We can hold up and help one other 
In God's love and God's grace 

Take heart my friend, the Lord is with us 
As He has been all the days of our lives 
Our assurance every morning 
Our defender in the night 

If we should falter when trouble surrounds us 
When the wind and the waves are wild and high 
We will look away to Him who ruled the waters 
Who spoke His peace into the angry tide 

He is our comfort, our sustainer 
He is our help in time of need 
When we wander, He is our Shepherd 
He who watches over us never sleeps 

Take heart my friend the Lord is with us 
As He has been all the days of our lives 
Our assurance every morning 
Our defender in the night
