Miles to Mercy

Gravel & Grace

Lyrics

lyrics
The path is narrow and the hills are wet
With tears of glory that I haven't met
I feel your grace upon this denim sleep
The only anchor that can help me grieve

I have a house but it's too full of ghosts
So I'm a wayfarer searching distant coasts
The silence whispers secrets I can't hide
A fragile truth that tears me up inside
I'm asking the shadows
I'm asking the wall
And still I walk beneath this endless rain
Waiting for your call

I sing your name
Even when I stand alone
Across these rivers made of tears and stone
The lamp is dry, but the soul carries on
Lord, lead me through the haze until the dawn

I'm reaching out but home is far away
Give me the strength to face another day
If your mercy mends the debt that can't be paid
Then hold the pieces of the man you made

Is that your voice, Lord, in the cedar trees
Or just the ghost that bring me to my knees?
I'll wear this jacket like a heavy debt
Tending in the soil where we haven't parted yet
Time is a river that I cannot wade
Afraid of the man that my own hands have made
But on this road, I'm learning to forgive
To find a reason and a way to live

I sing your name
Even when I stand alone
Across these rivers made of tears and stone
The lamp is dry, but the soul carries on
Lord, lead me through the haze until the dawn

I'm reaching out, but home is far away
Give me the strength to face another day
If your mercy mends the debt that can't be paid
Then hold the pieces of the man you made

I'm kneeling in the ashes and the heavy clay
Just a tired traveler looking for the way
I leave the dust where we were parted
Heal the spirit of the broken hearted

I'll sing your name until I find my way
Through the shadows to your eternal day
Your flame still burns, a fire in the dark
I'm coming home, forevermore
One more mile
With you, I'm whole
Ooh, ooh, oh
