Text: Ginny Owens. This Road.

A million miles away from anything familiar
A thousand places I would rather be
So I choke back the tears and try to find the bright side
Though I find it hard to see beyond my suffering

In my heart I know your plan is so much bigger
But this small part is all that I can see
And I believe you haven?t left me here to wander
Still I can't help but ponder where you're leading me

And I ask, why this road?
Why this way and this load?
Tell me how far must I go?
'Til I see, 'til I know why this road

A million miles away from anything familiar
What was it like to be so far from home
Though you came in love, the world misunderstood you
There must have been some days when you felt so alone

But you endured 'cause there was joy before you
Joy that came because you sacrificed
Since you gave yourself just to spend forever with me
Surely I can trust, you'll lead me through my darkest times

When I ask, why this road?
Why this way and this load?
Tell me how far must I go?
'Til I see, 'til I know why this road

From here I can not see
Why you'd choose this path for me
But I don't have to understand to believe
That you know why

You know, why this road?
Why this way and this load?
You know how far I must go?
'Til I see, 'til I know why this road
