Ooh -ooh -ooh -ooh -ooh -ooh,
tenderly he watches over you,
every step, every mile of the way.
Ooh
a mother watching over,
When you're weak, when you're strong,
when you're right, when you're wrong, in your joy
and your pain.
When you lose and when you gain
Tenderly he watches over you
Every step, every mile of the way
These are days when
the world is uncertain
An d the power of the atom unknown,
But a far greater power, out yonder,
Ever watches and cares for his own.
Sunday he watches over you,
Every step, every mile of the way.
Like a mother watching over a baby,
He is near you every hour of the day.
Long before time began,
You were part of
His plan.
Let no fear cloud your brow,
He will not forsake you now.
Tenderly he watches over you
Every step, every mile of the way
