" The Long Walk Home "
(Lyrics By Gerald Logan)
( Verse 1 )
I was wandering down a broken road,
Carrying shame, a heavy load.
Chains of sin had tied me tight,
I stumbled in darkness, far from the light.
( Chorus )
But mercy found me, grace pulled me near,
The voice of Jesus was all I could hear.
He washed me clean, set my spirit free,
Now I’m walking this road where His love carries me.
( Verse 2 )
At the cross, I laid it all down,
My past, my failures, the guilt I found.
The blood of the Lamb broke every chain,
Now I rise in freedom, no more shame.
( Chorus )
’Cause mercy found me, grace pulled me near,
The voice of Jesus was all I could hear.
He washed me clean, set my spirit free,
Now I’m walking this road where His love carries me.
( Bridge )
From the pit of despair to a brand-new life,
From the valley of death to eternal light.
Redeemed by His blood, forever I’ll stand,
Delivered and held by His nail-scarred hands.
( Final Chorus )
Yes, mercy found me, grace pulled me near,
The voice of Jesus is still loud and clear.
He washed me clean, set my spirit free,
Now I’m walking redeemed for eternity.
( Outro )
The long walk home is the walk of the saved,
From sin to redemption, from the cross to the grave.
But the grave couldn’t hold Him, and now I see,
That same power lives inside of me.
