[Verse 1] Oh, it's amazing, flipping these pages What's happened through all these years Down in the basement, looking through the ages I can see it so clear [Pre-Chorus 1] Things from this old house Really mean something now [Chorus 1] Like that poem that I used to hear Hanging 'round everywhere I used to write it off Just a picture on the wall But now that I've lived some life Been through some bitter times I can understand That one set of footprints in the sand [Verse 2] Oh, those lonely roads that I walked Sleepless nights that I thought I was on my own But those footprints behind me They tell the story You carried me all along [Pre-Chorus 2] Things aren't what they seem Sometimes there's more than what we see [Chorus 1] Like that poem that I used to hear Hanging 'round everywhere I used to write it off Just a picture on the wall But now that I've lived some life Been through some bitter times I can understand That one set of footprints in the sand [Interlude] [Bridge] And when I stop to look back I can see Your faithfulness Written in the prints that You leave You are more than here with me Oh, Lord, You carry me You are my strength when I'm weak [Pre-Chorus 3] I see what's ahead of me When I look back [Chorus 2] At that poem that I used to hear I saw it everywhere I used to write it off Now it's hanging on my wall I still have some life to live One thing, I'm sure of it You'll be with me to the end And I see that one set of Your footprints again [Outro] You carry me, You carry me So I can rest, I can rest You carry me, You carry me So I can rest, I can rest You carry me, You carry me So I can rest, I can rest You carry me, You carry me So I can rest, I can rest
