Father, it’s a new path I haven’t walked before, My heart and my flesh shrink from the cross to bear.
DISTRESS DIRIGE
Father, it’s a new path I haven’t walked before, My heart and my flesh shrink from the cross to bear.
Hitherto has the Lord led us through a spar
Safe and secure inspite of many a scar
A shield in battle when the enemy rages from near or far
A tower of defense when we tire in despair
He is the banner under which I fight life's war.
