I have come from so far away

Down the road of my own mistakes

In the hope you could hear me pray

Oh lord, keep me in your reach



How I've longed through these wasted years

To outrun all the pain and fear

Turned to stone from my uncried tears

And now it's your grace I seek



Love won't compromise

It's a gift, it's a sacrifice

My soul renewed, and my heart released

In you I'll find my peace



Wondrous child of whom the angels sing

Know my joy, feel my suffering

Shining star make this love you bring

So bright that I may believe



That my way will not be lost

From now on, 'til that river's crossed

My soul renewed, and my spirit free

In you I'll find my peace
