Everyone around me

may be going one way

 

But as for me

I will go the way You show me

 

They may invent new “truth”

and follow their own broken hearts

 

But as for me

I will stand solidly on Your timeless wisdom

 

All may bow to the world

and its ways

 

But as for me

I bow only to You, Lord

 

I will not be swayed

by a crowd mentality

by expendable truth

by waves of cultural norms

by popular opinion

 

As for me

I am with You, God

 

My commitment to You

clings to who You’ve promised

Yourself to be

 

On the love

that You gave me

proved so beautifully

 

As for me

I follow You

 

– Susie Stewart

 

As for me, I call to God,
    and the Lord saves me.

– Psalm 55:16 (NIV)

 

But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.

– Joshua 24:15 (NIV)

 

But as for me, I trust in You.

– Psalm 55:23 (NIV)
