Road Trip (I Have Miles Yet to Travel)

I have miles yet to travel- I have not yet arrived

The journey of the Spirit I have by grace survived

When I encounter holiness I see the need to grow

The place where I am transformed Is on God’s glory road

I’ve  walked with many saints there On paths where I was led

I know the Lord was leading Though times I walked in dread

But other times were glorious Though fateful ways I’ve trod

They led me ever onward Into the arms of God

Chorus

The road we walk before us Was by the Father planned

To build in us a true trust He leads us by the hand

Tho the journey take us O'er mountains rough and steep

He will not forsake us Our faith in Him He'll keep

Bridge:

Sufficient grace will be my guide As I walk the way of change

The miles meant to kill our pride Till holiness remains

I have yet miles to travel until I look like Christ

Some weavings to unravel Some sins to sacrifice

But God’s grace is sufficient To see me safely home

His promises will not relent Tho rugged ruts I roam.

At times my mind may murmur But I will not forget

My footsteps become firmer And on a Rock are set

I’ve many miles to traverse So many tests and trials

God’s promises I’ll rehearse T'will see me through the miles

Chorus

The road we walk before us Was by the Father planned

To build in us a true trust He leads us by the hand

Tho the journey take us O'er mountains rough and steep

He will not forsake us Our faith in Him He'll keep

Hebrews 12
