The Road To Home Lyrics

The road to home is so much longer than was the road away
When I was young and so much stronger and could decide to stay
Every night it takes its time to turn around today
With all my heart and all my mind, I cry and try to pray

[Chorus]
Don't let me stop until the lights of home are in my eyes
Don't let me drop until I fall into your long embrace
If I could only feel the ecstasy of hope's fulfilled surprise
Then each and every mile will be worthwhile
When by love they're all erased

I can see my Father running, and His arms are opened wide And if His love was not so stunning, I would try to run and hide
All the things I've done, where I've been, the times of sin and shame
But I can't resist the leap of hope every time He calls my name

[Chorus]
Don't let me stop until the lights of home are in my eyes
Don't let me drop until I fall into your long embrace
I can almost feel the ecstasy of hope's fulfilled surprise
And each and every mile will be worthwhile
When by love they're all erased
