A Long Way to Go

Through many dangers toils and snares

God’s grace has seen me through

I know that’s what that old song says

So when I don’t know what to do

I’ll cast myself headlong on Grace

And there I’ll take a stand

While I am wandering through this place

That I don’t understand

I have not arrived, I have much to learn

Many things to  grow in, many things to discern

Guess that’s just what you do 

When you don’t know what you don’t know

I know I’ve got a long way to go.

Through trials and disappointments

Through suffering and pain

The light shines on before me 

Saying there’s still so much to gain

If I will put my hand to the plough

Look neither left nor right

And keep my eyes from looking back

Good news will be in sight.

I have not arrived, I have much to learn

Many things to  grow in, many things to discern

Guess that’s just what you do 

When you don’t know what you don’t know

I know I’ve got a long way to go.

Bridge

While wandering in the wilderness the best way to be found

Is to fall upon on your knees and look to Heaven and not down

There is a Light to guide us, there is a Truth and Way

And it’s not in what the world believes or not what people say

I'll put one foot in front of the other and walk another day...

I have not arrived, I have much to learn

Many things to  grow in, many things to discern

Guess that’s just what you do 

When you don’t know what you don’t know

I know I’ve got a long way to go.
