Hard Road

I've been asking you to keep me from the trials and the pain
But now I'm asking you to keep me, Lord, no matter what my state
And when I wanna run, cause that's the easier way
My mind keep it pure, my heart keep it safe

Is it courage or surrender that you're drawing out of me
Cause you lead my heart to follow though your footprints can't be seen
And I can't make sense of where I've been or where this road will lead
But everything over my head is underneath your feet

Set my feet upon the hard road
If that's the way to lead my heart to yours
I'd trade it all for a glimpse of
The glory of the one who satisfies my soul

I've been back and forth between giving up and giving in
And the light has left my eyes 'cause I've forgotten what you said
So come and breathe upon the embers of my heart for they've grown dim
And give me courage to get my hopes up again

Set my feet upon the hard road
If that's the way to lead my heart to yours
I'd trade it all for a glimpse of
The glory of the one who satisfies my soul

Set my feet upon the hard road
If that's the way to lead my heart to yours
I'd trade it all for a glimpse of
The glory of the one who satisfies my soul

You gave me thoughts I didn't know I needed to think
You gave me songs I didn't know I needed to sing
Water I didn't know I needed to drink
Until I got up next to you
Now I see the hardest parts
Are the very places where you are
So if you have to come and break my heart
If it brings me back to you
If there's one thing that I've learned
It's that you are worth it all
And no matter how it goes
You'll be waiting there, waiting there in glory

You gave me thoughts I didn't know I needed to think
You gave me songs I didn't know I needed to sing
Water I didn't know I needed to drink
Until I got up next to you
Now I see the hardest parts
Are the very places where you are
So if you have to come and break my heart
If it brings me back to you
