From Back Roads to Blessings

[Verse 1]
Dust on my boots
Hand-me-down jeans
Mama at the table
Clipping grocery coupons, humming things
Old truck coughing
Cold in the dark
Praying by the dashboard
Like a little church on four bald tires
[Chorus]
So thank You for the back roads, for the hard days
For the nights I thought You walked away
You were laying down a line from there to here all along
From the empty in my pockets to this full heart
From the questions to a brand new start
I look at where I've been, where I'm going
Thank God I'm rolling on
[Verse 2]
Missed a few chances
Chased the wrong crowd
Said I had a plan
But I was mostly drifting round
Then You sent good people
Right when I fell
Turned my biggest breakdown
To a story I can finally tell
[Chorus]
So thank You for the back roads, for the hard days
For the nights I thought You walked away
You were laying down a line from there to here all along
From the empty in my pockets to this full heart
From the questions to a brand new start
I look at where I've been, where I'm going
Thank God I'm rolling on
[Bridge]
I don’t need a mansion
Just this little view
Of a sunrise over fields
And the chance to walk with You
Every mile behind me
Every mile to come
Is another hallelujah
On the tip of my tongue (yeah)
[Chorus]
So thank You for the back roads, for the hard days
For the nights I thought You walked away
You were laying down a line from there to here all along
From the empty in my pockets to this full heart
From the questions to a brand new start
I look at where I've been, where I'm going
Thank God I'm rolling on
[Outro]
Yeah, I look at where I've been, where I'm going
Thank God I'm rolling on

country, Bright, mid-tempo country with strummed acoustic guitar, brushed snare, and warm pedal steel; male vocals with a smile in the tone. Verses stay intimate and story-driven, then chorus blooms with stacked harmonies and a simple, catchy melody. Fiddle doubles the hook on the last chorus, gentle organ pad filling out the low end. Easy, feel-good drive-time energy.
