“I Am With You Always”
(Inspired by Matthew 28:20)
1
The path stretches ahead,
unknown, uncertain,
filled with questions,
but not empty of presence.
2
You do not go alone,
you do not step forward unseen,
your journey is known,
your way is held.
3
The world shifts,
nations rise and fall,
time moves like the tide,
but My promise remains.
4
When you stand before many,
when you whisper in secret,
when your words feel small,
I am there.
5
The mountains will not separate,
the valleys will not hide,
the oceans will not distance,
for I go with you.
6
Through storms and silence,
through battle and peace,
through joy and sorrow,
I walk beside you.
7
The task is great,
the calling is weighty,
but you do not carry it alone,
for I bear it with you.
8
Wherever you are sent,
wherever your feet may stand,
wherever your voice may rise,
I have already gone before you.
9
Not for a moment will I leave,
not for a breath will I forsake,
until the last word is spoken,
until the work is done.
10
I am with you always,
not sometimes, not briefly,
but always—
until the end of the age.
“Never Alone”
(Inspired by Matthew 28:20)
1
The road ahead is vast,
stretching beyond sight,
filled with places unknown,
but I do not walk alone.
2
The task is great,
the call is clear,
to go, to teach, to reach—
yet I am not sent alone.
3
The weight of the mission presses,
the world resists,
fear whispers,
but His voice is steady.
4
He does not stand at a distance,
watching, waiting,
He moves beside me,
leading every step.
5
In the quiet of morning,
in the noise of the crowd,
in the solitude of doubt,
He remains.
6
Through doors that open,
through doors that close,
through paths unknown,
His presence does not fade.
7
The winds may shift,
the journey may change,
but the promise is unshaken—
I am with you always.
8
Not just in the light,
not just in the victory,
but in the struggle,
in the waiting, in the storm.
9
Even to the last breath,
even to the last mile,
even when strength fails,
He is still here.
10
I go forward,
not in fear, not alone,
but with the One
who never leaves.
