Caedmon's Call Album: Back Home Track: Thousand Miles
Thousand Miles Lyrics
I have stolen, Lord, let me give
I have left your house a fugitive
I have wandered my own way
Squandered everything you gave
But my dying heart you saved and let me live
I have cursed the air and clenched my fist
I have hungered for your righteousness
I have tried to walk the line
I drew between your heart and mine
But you forgive me every time the mark is missed
So take my broken offering and make me whole
And set my feet upon the road that leads me home
Let me walk as one fixed upon the goal
Even though I've got a thousand miles to go
I have sought your grace in my defense
I have plundered your magnificence
Until my journey is complete
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
That I might sow what I have reaped from your great love
As I struggle for your hand
You use me in ways I can't understand
Take this sinful man and renew me Working through me
