Verse 1: 
    C                  Em                F                   G 
One night I dreamed of walking along the shores of different lands.   
        Am                 Em             F                 G 
I could tell that You were with me by the footprints in the sand. 
     C              Em             F           G 
As I gazed upon the heavens, I saw pages of my life. 
       Am        Em               F                  G 
It was then I realized that You remained there by my side. 
         Am              Em             F                  G 
When the clouds began to gather and the rains came falling down, 
  Am             Em              F                 G 
I looked to only find one set of footprints on the ground. 
         C                 Em              F                 G 
I said, 'Lord, why did You leave me in the troubled times of life? 
    Am                    Em            F               G                G7 
I believed that You would always walk beside me day and night.'  (Then I heard:) 
1: C C/B Am Dm G 'My precious child, I'd never leave you. C Em Dm G I have carved you on the hollow of My hand. Am Em It's then I carried you in My arms, F G C Em F Gsus G When you see one set of footprints in the sand'
Verse 2: C Em F G Dear Lord, will You be with me as I travel through the years? Am Em F G Will You be there in the struggles? Will You wipe away the tears? Am Em F G As my eyes turn toward the ocean and the shores of distant lands, Am Em F G G7 I'm still thinking of the single set of footprints in the sand. (I heard Him say:)
