All I Need To Know

by Kelly Elliott

FROM EGYPT, THROUGH THE RED SEA,

AND ON INTO THE WILDERNESS,

FROM THE CROSSING OF JORDAN,

TO THE PROMISE LAND FULLNESS.

LORD WHERE AM I AT,

FROM YOUR POINT OF VIEW?

I DONT TRUST MY HEART,

TO ANSWER ME TRUE.

I KNOW I'VE BEEN LONGER,

IN THE WILDERNESS THAN PLANNED.

MANY LESSON'S I LEARNED,

BROUGHT ABOUT BY YOUR HAND.

HUNGRY AND THIRSTY,

IN A DRY AND EMPTY PLACE,

TAUGHT MY HEART TO CLING,

TO MY SAVIOR'S GRACE.

MANY DARK HOUR'S,

I THOUGHT SPENT IN VAIN,

BROUGHT LIGHT, UNEXPECTED,

AS I BURIED MY GRAIN.

I REALLY DONT KNOW,

EXACTLY WHERE I AM,

BUT I KNOW I LEFT EGYPT,

BY THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB.
