Lyrics

[Intro]

The fog came down before the turning
Covered every marker I had known
I could not see beyond the headlights
Only enough road to keep moving on

[Verse 1]

I wanted distance, You gave direction
I wanted answers, You gave a step
I kept demanding the whole journey
You kept providing what came next

There are seasons made of fragments
Half-lit choices, quiet doors
Where obedience feels like walking
Without knowing what it’s for

But the lantern was never promised
For the miles beyond today
Your word has always been a lamp
Not a floodlight for the way

[Pre-Chorus]

So I will stop calling it darkness
When You have given light enough
The road may hide beyond this moment
But the next step still requires trust

[Chorus]

When I cannot see the road
I will follow what I know
You are faithful, You are present
You have never led me wrong

When I cannot see the road
And the signs are hard to read
I will listen for Your whisper
And go where You are leading me

I do not need the whole horizon
I just need You close

When I cannot see the road

[Verse 2]

I have followed louder voices
Just because they sounded sure
Mistook confidence for wisdom
And an open door for Yours

I have moved because of pressure
Stayed because I feared the cost
But peace is not avoiding conflict
And waiting is not always loss

Teach me how to test the voices
By the character of truth
Not by what protects my comfort
Or confirms what I would choose

If the road demands surrender
Let me not rename it harm
Some directions feel like dying
Before they lead us into life

[Pre-Chorus]

Keep me slower than my panic
Keep me nearer than my pride
Let Your counsel be the compass
When emotion clouds my sight

[Chorus]

When I cannot see the road
I will follow what I know
You are faithful, You are present
You have never led me wrong

When I cannot see the road
And the signs are hard to read
I will listen for Your whisper
And go where You are leading me

I do not need the whole horizon
I just need You close

When I cannot see the road

[Bridge]

If You lead me through the desert
You will teach me how to live

If You lead me through the waters
You will show me where to step

If You lead me through the losing
You will guard what must remain

If You lead me through the silence
You will keep me from the wrong voice

No map in my hand
No promise of ease
Only Your presence
In front of me

No crowd to confirm
No sign in the sky
Only Your Spirit
And courage to try

[Build]

Light for the step
Grace for the mile
Strength for the hour
Peace for the night

Bread for the morning
Truth for the doubt
You have not brought me this far
To leave me here now

I will not run ahead of You
I will not turn from fear
Where Your presence makes the pathway
That is where I will stay near

[Final Chorus]

When I cannot see the road
I will follow what I know
You are faithful, You are present
You have never led me wrong

When I cannot see the road
And the night is closing in
I will trust the God who sees the end
From where I now begin

I do not need the whole horizon
I just need Your voice

When I cannot see the road
I will still make the next choice

[Outro]

The fog has not completely lifted
But I am not afraid to go

You have given enough light for this moment

And that is enough road
