Dancing In the Desert - Mary Rice Hopkins
Lyrics
The roadway through the desert Lord
Are you sure I must go there
Oh I’d rather take the broader path
Pastures green and fair
The sun is hot, beating down
No trees to lend their shade
Oh I’d rather go where waters flow
And cooler paths are laid
Are laid
Chorus:
But God said,
Trust and see
Don’t give up just believe
Trust and see
And I’ll give you all you need
Trust and see
And one day you’ll be free
You’ll be dancing in the desert
Dancing in the desert
Dancing in the desert with me
In the desert you will dance
You will lift your voice and sing
You will drink from healing waters
I will bring
The easy way is not the best
There are times that you must go
Though desert fields you must trust
It’s difficult I know, I know
(Repeat Chorus)
So when you’ve reached the other side
You’ll look back and say
In the desert I have danced
With the grace of God each day
I found that as I walked with God
He answered every prayer
And I can dance on desert sands
Just knowing He was there
You are there
(Repeat Chorus)
