The Ladder of Faith

Father, I’m on my knees
Before Your throne
A temporary visit
To my future home

I’m empty and weak
At the lowest of low
Nothing to cling to
No signs of hope

So amidst all this pain
I reach out for Your hand
By searching Your holy Word
And finding the Son of Man

You breathe life into me
And the fear falls away
With each step I climb
On the ladder of faith

I’ll stand strong and fight
On the wings of Your grace
With each step I climb
On the ladder of faith

So I’ll keep going
One step at a time
The victories before me
And the failures behind

One day I’ll arrive
At the highest wrung
Coming face-to-face
To Your beautiful Son

And I’ll give Him thanks
For delivering me
He was my hope for
And substance not seen.

You breathe life into me
And the fear falls away
With each step I climb
On the ladder of faith

I’ll stand strong and fight
On the wings of Your grace
With each step I climb
On the ladder of faith
