Footprints in the Sand

I
Walking on the seashore, 
leaving footprints behind.
Two pairs of footprints,
I know You're by my side.

II
But when my darkest times arrive,
One set of footprints' there
It bothered me too much
I thought You weren't there.

Chorus
There's only one set of footprints in the sand, 
I don't understand Why 
when I needed You most, Lord
You would leave me behind.
There's only one set of footprints in the sand, 
I don't understand Why
when I needed You most, Lord
You would leave me behind.

II
He replied My child, 
My precious child,
I love you
and would not leave you sad.
During the times of your troubles and freight,
It was then that I held you,
carried and healed you.

Chorus
There's only one set of footprints in the sand, 
I don't understand Why 
when I needed You most, Lord
You would leave me behind.
There's only one set of footprints in the sand, 
I don't understand Why
when I needed You most, Lord
You would leave me behind.
