You look at me in wonder
Oh it seems so strange
The way I lift up Jesus
And sing praises to His name.
I jump on many occasions
Sometimes I stomp my feet
When I think of all He's done
So much in just one week.
He healed my afflicted body
Gave peace to my weary soul
Provided food and shelter
An entire family clothed.
Oh it seems so strange
The way I scream and shout
But walk a little in my shoes
See how He brought me out.
He's my counselor, my protector--
A light at the tunnel's end
And when I'm feeling lonely
In Him I have a friend.
Keep walking in my shoes
For this you need to se
My Savior's been a constant source
Everything I need Him to be.
I shout because I remember
Just where He brought me from
A place of desolation
The bottom of life's drum.
Oh I scream and shout with laughter
It rings from within my soul
No one knows from whence He brought me
It was a bitter cup to hold.
Keep walking in my shoes
See everything I see
Why I praise my Lord and Savior
Who died to set me free.
I don't always have the answers
My search seems to have no end
I'm often doused with questions
The enemy seems to send
So at times I'm loud and noisy
Other times I sit quietly
But whatever way I praise Him
A freedom it always brings.
Walk a little in my shoes
Open your eyes and see
We have a right to praise our Savior
Who paid with Calvary.
