I set out on a great adventure

The day my father started leading me home

He said theres gonna be some mountains to climb

And some valleys we're gonna go through

But I have no way of knowing

Just how hard this journey could be

Cause the mountains are steeper and the valley's are deeper

Than I ever would have dreamed

I know we gonna make it

I know we're gonna get there soon

I know sometimes it seems like we are going the wrong way

It's just a long way home

Some rocks in my shoes, some fears I wish I can lose

It makes the mountains so hard to climb

And I my heart gets so heavy with the weight of the world sometimes

And theres a bag of regrets

Should of beens, and I gets

I keep on dragging around

And I can hardly wait till the day I get to lay them all down

I know that day is coming

I know is going to be here soon

I wont turn back even if the world says I'm going the wrong way

It's just a long way home

And when we can't take another step

The father will pick us up and carry us in his arms

And even on the best days he says remember we aren't home yet

So don't get to comfortable because really are, is just pilgrims passing through

I know that day is coming

I know where gonna to be there soon

I keep on singing and believing what all of my songs say

Because our god has made a promise

And I know that everything he says is true

He promised he will never ever leave us

He's gonna lead us

He'll lead us home

Every single step of the long way home

So keep on we're gonna make it
