MY SHADOW AND I WENT FOR A WALK
WE WALKED IN SILENCE, NO NEED TO TALK.
HE WALKED BESIDE ME ALL THE WAY
NOT ONCE DID HE EVER LEAD ME ASTRAY.

WHEN I WOULD STOP MY SHADOW STOPPED
WHEN I HOPPED MY SHADOW WOULD HOP.
NEVER ONCE DID HE LEAVE ME ALONE,
NOT EVEN WHEN I WAS WEARY AND GROANED.

DON'T IT REMIND YOU OF ANOTHER SHADOW
THAT ALWAYS WALKS BESIDE YOU
TO PROTECT YOU FROM THE STORMS OF LIFE
AND GUIDE YOU IN ALL THAT YOU DO.

MY OTHER SHADOW IS MY LOVING JESUS
HE'S THERE TO HOLD MY HAND,
WHEN SATAN HURLS THEM ROCKS AT ME
MY JESUS TAKES A STAND.

I NEED NOT FEAR FOR WHAT LIES AHEAD
FOR MY JESUS IS IN CONTROL,
AND JUST LIKE MY OTHER SHADOW HERE
I KNOW HE WILL NEVER LET ME GO.
