A World Away

(album: A Maze Of Grace - 1997)

I've been walking down this long road simply taking in the view
I've wandered down some wrong roads hit a dead end or two
Now I'm paying more attention
Before I even take a step
I've gotta learn to forget

I don't know 'bout you, what life has brought you through
But we'll keep walking, oh, headed home and see what He will do

We're a world away from where we started
No more looking behind
We can make it if we just hold on
Keep the faith, 'cause love is on our side

I point my heart in His direction knowing He will be my guide
I've learned to follow my affections, walk away from foolish pride
When I think of where we started, look to the end
See the distance is less now than when we began

I don't know 'bout you, what life has brought you through
But we'll keep walking, oh, headed home and see what He will do

We're a world away from where we started
No more looking behind
We can make it if we just hold on
Keep the faith, 'cause love is on our side
We're a world away, but we're not there yet
There's a whole lot of road up ahead
I want to ride every single mile with you
We're a world away
No more yesterdays, we're a world away

The One who has made a way for you and me
Is the same One who's seen us do everything wrong
But He can make it all right
If we believe it's true
If we say what we say
And do what we do
And hold onto Him
He's gonna see us through
