1 verse:
By the road a lily blooming out
Every day surrounded by swirly dust,
Stayed upright so strong and dignified,
Beautiful and gentle in the face of God.
Chorus:
Let my soul among the earthly paths,
Kept by God untarnished, cleansed and sunny bright,
Like the lily trembling by the road,
Yet, untouched by sin and evil of the world.
2 verse:
Suddenly, ferocious storm has struck,
But the Lily still is standing silver bright.
All in tears I look at it and ask:
“Will I ever be as pure and filled with love?”
3 verse:
By the road a lily blooming out
Every day surrounded by swirly dust,
Stayed upright so strong and dignified,
Beautiful and gentle in the face of God.
