Analysis of Footprints in the Sand part 2
Jeaniene Moody 1975 (Philadelphia)
When the days are long and the money is all gone, who will be there?
When the the stress is all around and there's no relief
who will be there?
Who will be there?
I looked around, there was no one there.
Then I looked up, guess who was there?
It was Jesus Christ Himself . He told me "child I was the only one there".
Who fed you, when you had no money?
Who relieved you from your stress and gave you peace.
Remember it was Me just like the footprints in the sand. I carried you when your feet were weak.
