Lyrics
Intro
(Soft acoustic guitar fingerpicking starts)
(Humming: Male low baritone, joined by Female soft soprano)
(Guitar continues for 16 bars)
Verse 1
(Male Voice)
The sun comes up on a brand new day
I don’t have to worry, I don’t have to stray
I used to stumble, I used to lose my way
But then I heard a voice, and I heard Him say...
(Female Voice)
The road is narrow, the mountain is steep
But there are promises that He’s gonna keep
Through the desert sand and the water deep
He watches over me while I’m asleep.
Chorus
(Duet - Harmonizing)
Oh, I'm walking in God's plan for my life
He ordered my steps and He's making it right
Through every valley I know I'll survive
'Cause His hand is on me
This is God's plan for my life
(Male: Let's take 'em to church)
Verse 2
(Female Voice)
Sometimes the shadows try to close in tight
But I’ve got a fire burning in the night
(Male Voice - ad-lib: So bright, so bright)
It’s not by power, and it’s not by might
It’s just the spirit leading me to the light.
(Duet)
We’re building a foundation on the solid rock
We’re listening for the sound when the Savior knocks
No more looking back at the ticking clock
We’re part of the fold, we’re part of the flock.
Chorus
(Duet - Stronger Harmonies)
I'm walking in God's plan for my life
(Male: Yeah)
Up by His grace and I'm shining His light
No weapon formed can take away my right
'Cause He covers me daily
This is God's plan for my life
(Female: Yeah)
Bridge
(Music strips back to just a single guitar string)
(Male Voice - nearly whispering)
He knew my name before I was born.
(Female Voice - soft)
He mends the heart that’s tattered and torn.
(Male Voice)
Every setback...
(Female Voice)
Was a setup...
(Duet)
For the glory yet to be shown!
(Build up slightly)
(Duet)
I trust Him (I trust Him)
I follow (I follow)
Wherever He leads, I will go.
Wherever He leads, I will go!
Guitar Solo - Melodic and Acoustic
(32 bars of soulful acoustic guitar)
Chorus
(Duet - Full passion)
Oh, I'm walking in God's plan for my life
He ordered my steps and He's making it right
Through every valley I know I'll survive
'Cause His hand is on me
This is God's plan for my life
(Duet - Transitioning to second Chorus part)
I'm walking in God's plan for my life
(Male: Oh, yes I am)
Up by His grace and I'm shining His light
No weapon formed can take away my right
'Cause He covers me daily
This is God's plan for my life
Outro
(Female Voice)
It’s His plan...
(Male Voice)
Not my will, but Yours be done.
(Female Voice)
Every step is ordered.
(Male Voice)
Every battle’s won.
(Duet - fading out)
This is God's plan for my life...
(Male: For my life)
(Female: For my life)
(Slow final guitar strum)
