Lead Us Onward (Gentle Contemporary)

[Spoken Intro] Lord, as we quiet our hearts this morning, lead our steps into Your peace, and let Your light surround us. [Verse 1] In the quiet of the morning light, You are guiding every path we take, holding us close through day and night, giving strength for every choice we make. [Spoken Prayer] Teach us to listen before we speak, and to be gentle with the hearts we meet. When the way is difficult to see, remind us, Lord, that You are near. [Chorus] Lead us onward, faithful Savior, keep our hearts in Your care. Through each moment, walk beside us; we will trust You everywhere. [Verse 2] When the hours bring a heavier load, when our hope feels small and far away, You are present on the winding road, You give us courage for today. [Chorus] Lead us onward, faithful Savior, keep our hearts in Your care. Through each moment, walk beside us; we will trust You everywhere. [Bridge] Make us patient, make us kind, leave Your peace in all we find. With open hands and willing hearts, we follow where Your mercy starts. [Final Chorus] Lead us onward, faithful Savior, keep our hearts in Your care. Through each moment, walk beside us; we will trust You everywhere. [Spoken Outro] May our words bring comfort, may our choices honor You, and may we carry Your peace into every place we go. Amen.
