Like the mist pulls a veil over the forest trail
So the circumstances of life pull a veil over truth

Once so sure in the direction to take
Once so steady in the choices made

Now my vision is clouded
My steady gate has crumbled
As I stumble in my faith.

Was the picture clear before
Or did I just imagine--

Have I heard God's voice
Did I act with His passion

I stand alone
There is judgement on all sides

I am reaching through the air
Hoping to grasp one small token of reality

I am searching in truth for the eternal
Where my heart can rest in peace.

"All those who hope in the Lord, be strong and take heart and wait on the Lord"

As I wait for his deliverance
I must continue forward--

Seeing with my heart more than my mind
The direction I must follow

And though I am afraid
I must trust in his protection

As my Father wisely guides me
Through the mist
To the inheritance that is mine.
