Lead Me On
Planetshakers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
God, in everything I do
I want to be like you
Jesus lead me on
Verse2:
You make my life complete
Lamp unto my feet
Pre-Chorus:
Everyday I'll walk with you
I'll be like you in everything I do
I just want to follow you
My God, my King
You are my everything
Chorus:
Everyday I'll go your way
Jesus lead me on
Every step a step of faith
Jesus lead me on
Bridge:
You
I'm gonna follow you
I'm gonna follow you
The song "Lead Me On" is an anthem of surrender to God's will and a prayer for Him to lead us in our everyday life. It opens up with the writer confessing their desire to be like God in everything they do, a sign of humility and a dependence on God for guidance. The writer acknowledges that without God leading them, their life will not be complete, making a reference to Psalm 119:105 which describes the Word of God as a lamp unto our feet and a light unto our paths. This reference implies that God provides divine wisdom and direction that enables us to live a fulfilled life.
In the chorus, the writer declares their daily commitment to follow and trust in Jesus, allowing Him to take the lead in every aspect of their life. The phrase "Every step a step of faith" highlights the importance of trust and faith in our journey with Christ. We are summoned to follow Him even when we don't understand or when the path appears challenging. The bridge emphasizes our resolve to follow Jesus regardless of the cost, and this mirrors the message in Luke 9:23 where Jesus invites us to take up our cross daily and follow Him.
