Straight Paths

Straight Paths by Marchel Copyright 2026 Lyric [Verse 1] I’ve been mapping my own miles Wearing holes in all my plans Chasing every crooked shortcut Till I couldn’t even stand Then Your ancient words found me Cutting through my restless doubt Like a quiet voice that whispers What this life is really about [Chorus] So I will trust in You with all my heart Lay my worries down where mercy starts I will follow You in all my ways You will make my paths You will make my paths straight (you will make my paths straight) [Verse 2] Every fork feels like a mountain Every choice A heavy stone But You see the road I can’t see You were there before I’d grown So I turn from my illusions All the wisdom I pretend And I lean into Your leading Like a child again Again [Chorus] I will trust in You with all my heart Lay my worries down where mercy starts I will follow You in all my ways I will trust in You with all my heart Lay my worries down where mercy starts I will follow You in all my ways You will make my paths You will make my paths straight (oh, I’m holding to Your name) [Bridge] When I don’t know where I’m going You have always known the way Teach my trembling feet surrender Guide me step by step each day When the night surrounds my footsteps And my courage starts to fade I remember what You promised Every valley will be made straight [Chorus] I will trust in You with all my heart Lay my worries down where mercy starts I will follow You in all my ways You will make my paths You will make my paths straight You will make my paths You will make my paths straight
