Putting One Foot in Front of the Other

This Road ~Ginny Owens

A million miles away from anything familiar
A thousand places I would rather be
So I choke back the tears
and try to find the bright side
Though I find it hard to see beyond my suffering
In my heart I know Your plan is so much bigger
But this small part is all that I can see
And I believe you haven't left me here to wander
Still I can't help but ponder where You're leading me

And I ask why this road
Why this way and this load
Tell me how far must I go
Til I see, Til I know why this road

A million miles away from anything familiar
What was it like to be so far from home
And though You came in love
the world misunderstood You
There must have been some days when You felt so alone
But You endured 'cause there was joy before You
Joy that came because You sacrificed
Since You gave Yourself just to spend forever with me
Surely I can trust You'll lead me through my darkest times

When I ask why this road
Why this way and this load
Tell me how far must I go
Til I see, Til I know why

From here I cannot see why You choose this path for me
But I don't have to understand to believe
that You know why
You know why this road
Why this way and this load
You know how far I must go
Til I see, Til I know why this road
