You can plan all you like—stack your list to the sky,
Charting all your dreams and giving each one a try.
But plans on their own, no matter how grand,
Won’t work like you hoped without God’s guiding hand.
You may think, “I’ll go left,” or perhaps, “I’ll go right.”
“I’ll climb every ladder. I’ll win every fight.”
But God sees the whole journey, each twist and bend.
He knows where you’ll grow and how things will end.
So scribble your dreams and design your best schemes,
But give them to God and not just to your dreams.
For people make plans both clever and bold,
But the Lord’s ways are worth more than gold.
When you follow his lead and walk in his way,
You’ll find joy in the steps of your journey each day.
So dream big with God. He’ll help you succeed,
For he shapes the best plans and provides what you need.
