Long Way Home - Steven Curtis Chapman Lyrics

I set out on a great adventure
The day my father started leading me home
He said theres gonna be some mountains to climb
And some valleys we're gonna go through
But I have no way of knowing
Just how hard this journey could be
Cause the mountains are steeper and the valley's are deeper
Than I ever would have dreamed
I know we gonna make it
I know we're gonna get there soon
I know sometimes it seems like we are going the wrong way
It's just a long way home
Some rocks in my shoes, some fears I wish I can lose
It makes the mountains so hard to climb
And I my heart gets so heavy with the weight of the world sometimes
And theres a bag of regrets
Should of beens, and I gets
I keep on dragging around
And I can hardly wait till the day I get to lay them all down
I know that day is coming
I know is going to be here soon
I wont turn back even if the world says I'm going the wrong way
It's just a long way home
And when we can't take another step
The father will pick us up and carry us in his arms
And even on the best days he says remember we aren't home yet
So don't get to comfortable because really are, is just pilgrims passing through
I know that day is coming
I know where gonna to be there soon
I keep on singing and believing what all of my songs say
Because our god has made a promise
And I know that everything he says is true
He promised he will never ever leave us
He's gonna lead us
He'll lead us home
Every single step of the long way home
So keep on we're gonna make it
