~*~ Roads ~*~
V1:
Faith without its works is dead
It was tortured and enslaved
Until it burned and bled
Yet we are saved
And we are safe
Yes, we are safe
Prechorus 1:
And I'm not scared, I'm not afraid
Because of this little prayer I've pryed
Chorus:
God, I know You'll keep me close
And hold Your children too
I don't know where these paths could turn
But they're made straight by You
All roads lead back into Your arms
Around me like eagles' wings
And I will soar above the roads, above the cross, above
On Your wings of love
V2:
Crossing at the crossroads, You and I
I took Your breastplate and Your shield
And yet I feared to fly
May I yield
May my heart yield
Make my heart yield
Prechorus 2:
Oh, I'm not scared, I'm not alone
Because of the mercy He has shown
Chorus:
God, I know You'll keep me close
And hold Your children too
I don't know where these paths could turn
But they're made straight by You
All roads lead back into Your arms
Around me like eagles' wings
And I will soar above the roads, above the cross, above
On Your wings of love
Bridge:
The Lord could strike me down for my sin
For all my wrongs
But Jesus stretched His mighty hand
He has planned
A future for me
By grace and with hope I know I'll stand
And I'll stand tall and free
Father, Father
He takes care of me
Father, Father
He takes care of me
Prechorus 4:
Now, I'm not scared, no, I won't cry
'Cause love and hope and faith will never die
Chorus:
God, I know You'll keep me close
And hold Your children too (hold Your children too)
I don't know where these paths could turn
But they're made straight by You (on these roads, these roads)
All roads lead back into Your arms
Around me like angels' wings
And I will soar above the roads
And I will soar above the roads
And I will soar above the cross, above
On Your wings of love
