Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

Jesus draw me ever nearer as I labor through the storm.

You have called to this passage, and I'll follow though I'm worn.

May this journey bring a blessing, may I rise on wings of faith.

At the end of my heart's testing, with your likeness let me wake.


Jesus, guide me through the tempest, keep my spirit stead and sure. 

When the midnight meets the morning, let me love you even more.

May this journey bring a blessing, may I rise on wings of faith.

At the end of my heart's testing, with your likeness let me wake.


Let the treasures of the trial form within me as I go. 

At the end of this long passage, let me leave them at your throne.

May this journey bring a blessing, may I rise on wings of faith.

At the end of my heart's testing, with your likeness let me wake.
