Half A Mile

(Verse)

It's been a long day, and I stand still in this place

Like a fish on the bottom, longing for grace

Surrounded, waiting for the waves to crest high

Born a sinner 'mongst saints, I put my soul to the sky

(Verse)

The weight I bear, this chain of love so true

A prisoner to no one, but the choices I pursue

To be home, to be carried, not burdened by my feet

I am tired of walking, Lord, can't you feel the heat?

(Chorus)

Half a mile to Victory, though the path is unclear

Crashing tides come over me, washing away all fear

A poor man's soul, I willingly leave behind

I surrender to the glory, the majesty I find

This love, this life, this country, in Your hands I arrive.

(Verse)

It's been too long a night, at the bottom of the sea

This angel's anchor, holding only me

But you have one too, I see it attached with care

I'd rather walk on water, than succumb to dark despair

(Chorus)

Half a mile to Victory, though the path is unclear

Crashing tides come over me, washing away all fear

A poor man's soul, I willingly leave behind

I surrender to the glory, the majesty I find

This love, this life, this country, in Your hands I arrive.

(Bridge)

Life's not about the pace, how fast we run the race

But how far we've come, leaving a loving trace

We all rise and fall, with the rhythm of the sun

But I've seen the glory, everywhere I've roamed, and won

(Outro)

Take another step, take another step home

Take another step, no longer alone

Take another step, towards the light so bright

Take another step, into His glorious light.
