I know I'd be the richest man
If I could see around the bend
I'd have myself one heck of a plan
But I don't ...
So do I take a left or take a right
Pack up my gloves or stay and fight
Leave at dawn or the middle of the night
I don't know ...
Cause the next thing might be easy
The next thing might be hard
Might take you a thousand miles
Or keep you where you are
I used to think the wisest man
Knew what this life would bring
But now I see ...
The wisdon in trusting God
And doing the next thing.
Well they say the power's a measure of a man
And we all work hard to understand
But how much do we really command
Not much, anyhow
Who know the path of a lightning strike
What the storehouse of the snow looks like
Feel like we got our finger in the dyke
But we don't - do we now
The next thing might be easy
The next thing might be hard
Might take you a thousand miles
Or keep you where you are
I used to think the wisest man
Knew what this life would bring
But now I see ...
The wisdon in trusting God
And doing the next thing.
Moses was just tending sheep
All washed up and half asleep
Then one day on a mountain steep
He saw a fire that would not consume
Said the Lord "You've got a job to do"
But Lord do you know who you're talking to
Don't worry Moses I'll be with you
I Am - who I am
In the garden of Gethsamine
Our sweet Saviour there upon his knees
Praying take this cup away from me
But Your will - not mine
Your will - not mine
Oh Your will - not mine
The next thing might be easy
The next thing might be hard
Might take you a thousand miles
Or keep you where you are
I used to think the wisest man
Knew what this life would bring
But now I see ...
The wisdon in trusting God
And doing the next thing.
