Lyrics

In a land I’ve never known, in a place that’s far from home
Isolated and alone, come carry me 
While I cannot see Your face, in the darkness of this place
I’m depending on Your grace, come carry me

Come carry me, shepherd of my soul, come carry me
I am Your child, I am so afraid.
Come carry me, shepherd of my soul, come carry me
I’m safe in Your arms, come and carry me

In the long, uncertain night as I wait here for the light
Your embrace is now in sight, come carry me
Pick me up with gentleness, lead me to a place of rest 
Where You let me catch my breath, come carry me

In Your strength I am secure
Of Your presence I am sure
Your tender love endures
