Can't find the lyrics to hymn, "Each Step I Take". Not in my hymnal. Can you help?

Each step I take my Savior goes before me,
And with His loving hand He leads the way;
And with each breath I whisper, "I adore Thee!"
O what joy to walk with Him each day.

Chorus
Each step I take I know that He will guide me--
To higher ground He ever leads me on;
Until some day the last step will be taken,
Each step I take just leads me closer home.

I trust in God, no matter come what may,
For life eternal is in His hand;
He holds the key that opens up the way
That will lead me to the promised land.

Thanks so much for these lyrics. I have lost a lot of loved ones recently, but praise the Lord, they are in heaven awaiting my arrival. This song reminds me of that.

It has another verse: â™ªAt times i feel my faith begin to waver, when up ahead i see a chasm wide, its then i turn and look up to my savior, i am strong when he is by my side.â™ª

Thank You, Guest, who just posted the other verse. I didn't know it had another verse.

Here is a youtube video of this song.

1) Each step I take my Savior goes before me,
And with His loving hand He leads the way.
And with each breath I whisper "I adore Thee,"
O, what joy to walk with Him each day.

Chorus: Each step I take I know that He will guide me;
To higher ground He ever leads me on.
Until some day the last step will be taken,
Each step I take just leads me closer home.

2) At times I feel my faith begin to waver,
When up ahead I see a chasm wide.
It's then I turn and look up to my Savior;
I am strong when He is by my side.

3) I trust in God, no matter come what may,
For life eternal is in His hand.
He holds the key that opens up the way,
That will lead me to the promised land.
