This is a sprightly hymn of praise by Erwin Cabucos that would be a great recessional. It seems to be inspired by several psalms. I think it would be a good song for young people to sing as well.
The sheet music can be purchased at sheetmusicplus.
This was a fun song to make a backing for, especially letting Band in a Box improvise some sax over the intro and instrumental verse.
1 Lord you are my light, in darkness you are my guide.
I know I will be safe for you’re always by my side.
Amid the falsehoods that blur and blind my sight
With you I will see truth I long to find.
Chorus
I praise you, Lord, forever I rejoice for you’re my God.
I won’t fret and I won’t worry.
I can do all things through you who strengthens me.
2 Lord, you are my strength in my weakness you’re my force.
I know I will be saved from the side of my foes.
In my struggles, I’m down and weary
With you I bear the seal of victory.
Chorus
3 Lord, you heal me, you bund up my wound.
I know I will be kept in the safety of your tent.
In my aches and pains that feel my flesh fails
With you my health and spirit prevail.
Chorus
