The song that I think has a very beautiful message
that I hope you have heard somewhere along your path of life.
[Am] [E]
One night, I had a dream.
[A] I dreamed I was walking along the beach
with the Lord,
[E] when across the sky flashed scenes from my life.
[B] For each scene I noticed two sets [F#] of footprints
[E] in the sand.
One set belonged to me,
[F#] and the [A] other to the Lord.
When the last scene of my [E] life flashed before us,
I looked back [F#m] at the footprints in the sand,
and I noticed [E] that many times along the [A] path of life
there was [B] only one set of footprints.
[Em] I also [A] noticed that it happened at [B] the very lowest
and saddest times in my [E] life.
And this [A] really bothered me.
[B] So I questioned the Lord about it.
[E] One set of footprints [B] in the sand.
Lord, you promised me you'd [E] hold my [B] hand.
[E] Tell me [G#] why in the troubled [A] times
I look [G] back and only find
[E] [B] one set of footprints [E] in the [B] sand.
[Bm] [F#]
Lord, you said that once I [B] decided to follow you,
you would walk with me all the way.
[F#] But I've noticed during the most troublesome times in my life,
[C#] there's only one set of footprints.
[F#] I don't understand why,
in times when I needed you most.
[B] You should leave me.
And the Lord replied,
[F#] My precious, [G#m] precious child,
I love you,
[F#] and I would never, never leave you
[C#] during your times of trial and suffering.
[F#] When you saw only one set of [C#] footprints in the sand,
[F#] it was then that I was carrying you.
[C#] One [F#] set of footprints in [C#] the sand.
Oh yes, at last [F#] I understand.
Through every storm He carries [B] me,
now I praise the Lord each time I [F#] sing.
