I don’t want to write this song
I don’t want this pain to be my story 
I don’t want this desert road
Are you sure this is the plan that You have for me

Out here in the dust and clay
God if there’s a bigger picture
It’s getting hard to see today 
But I know that You won’t leave me here

I don’t know where this is going 
But I know who holds my hand
It’s not the path I would have chosen 
But I’ll follow You to the end
Lord, as long as I am breathing 
I will make Your glory known
Even if it means I’m walking
On this desert road (where You lead me I will follow)
On this desert road (where You lead me I will follow)

You got my attention now
I was doing the talking but now I’m listening 
This is where my hope is found
Knowing life is hard but You’re still with me

I’m not out here on my own
You are close to the broken hearted
'Cause You’ve already walked this road
And You’re going to finish what you started 

I don’t know where this is going 
But I know who holds my hand
It’s not the path I would have chosen 
But I’ll follow You to the end
Lord, as long as I am breathing 
I will make Your glory known
Even if it means I’m walking
On this desert road (where You lead me I will follow)
On this desert road (where You lead me I will follow)

Where You lead me I will follow
As You lift my head I see
Where You lead me I will follow
So many desperate souls in need
Where You lead me I will follow
I’ll walk with them as You walk with me
Where You lead me I will follow
You’re the living water to the thirsty 

I don’t know where this is going 
But I know who holds my hand
It’s not the path I would have chosen 
But I’ll follow You to the end
Lord, as long as I am breathing 
I will make Your glory known
Even if it means I’m walking
On this desert road (where You lead me I will follow)
On this desert road (where You lead me I will follow)

So many desperate souls in need
Where You lead me I will follow
I’ll walk with them as You walk with me
Where You lead me I will follow
