Grateful Roads

[Verse] Been walkin' down this old dirt path, alone and lost at sea, But Jesus found me there and said, "My child, come follow Me." His love like sunlight on my skin, dispelled the dark and cold, In His embrace, I found my place, a shelter for my soul. [Chorus] Oh Jesus, my Savior, my Shepherd, and King, Your love like a river, makes my heart want to sing. Through valleys and mountains, wherever I roam, With You, Lord, beside me, I'll always find home. [Verse 2] The world can strip a man of hope, drown him in despair, But with each step He lights my way, assures me He's still there. In every storm and trial faced, He stands so strong and true, His grace and mercy fill my cup, like morning's gentle dew. [Chorus] Oh Jesus, my Savior, my Shepherd, and King, Your love like a river, makes my heart want to sing. Through valleys and mountains, wherever I roam, With You, Lord, beside me, I'll always find home. [Bridge] When doubters come and shadows loom, His word's my guiding light, Through every tear and whispered prayer, He turns my wrongs to right. I'll sing His praises loud and clear, ’til my final breath is gone, For in His arms, I've found the truth, my weakness turned so strong. [Verse 3] So keep me on this righteous path, through thorns and narrow ways, With every step, I'll follow close, and give Him all my praise. His love's a song, eternal, sweet, that never fades away, In Jesus' name, forevermore, my spirit's meant to stay.
