Who made the mountain?
Who made the trees?
Who made the river
Flow to the sea?
Who hung the moon
In the starry sky?
Somebody bigger than you and I

Who make the flowers
Bloom in the spring?
Who write the song
For the robin to sing?
And who send the rain
When the Earth is dry
Somebody bigger than you and I

(He lights the way) He lights the way
(When the road is long) when the road is long
And He'll keep you company
(With love to guide) with love to guide you
(He walks beside) He walks beside you
(Just like He walks with me) just like He walks with me, oh

When I am weary
Filled with despair
Who give me courage
To go on from there
And who give me faith
That will never, never die
Somebody bigger than you and I
Somebody bigger than you and I
