The steps to the church are old and broken Yet they lead the way to all things new and pure Left all alone, but they never complain Through the sun and the rain they endure I used to take them for granted I never saw the value that they held for me But the price has been paid, and each step leads the way To the bloodshed at Calvary Lord I wanna be like one of those steps I wanna lead people to you Like a star in the night, Lord I wanna be the light When people can't find their way through Send them to me, let me teach them to pray Let me lead them to your precious holy name Lord I wanna be like one of those steps You were pierced and broken Yet you willingly gave your life The blood flows deep and the rivers are clean Your love has flown deep in the night Just like those steps that lead the way To that little ol' church on the hill Lord I lay down my life as a sacrifice I commend myself to Your will Lord I wanna be like one of those steps I wanna lead people to you Like a star in the night, Lord I wanna be the light When people can't find their way through Send them to me, let me teach them to pray Let me lead them to your precious holy name Lord I wanna be like one of those steps Lord I wanna be like one of those steps
