[Verse 1] Before we turn the key, we gather in the room A question on the table, a hope we want to bloom I listen for your burden, you listen for mine The wisest road is rarely found by one mind [Pre-Chorus] Love puts a measure on the freedom we possess It asks whose heart is carried by the choice we bless [Chorus] Many counselors bring good results When every voice is heard with respect We count the cost, we share the load And choose the path that love protects If time and strength must change their course We make the adjustments without regret Many counselors bring good results When we put another first in every step [Verse 2] We write the hours down, the money and the miles Who brings the patience, who can stay awhile A plan can look appealing till the details come in view Then kindness finds a better way for me and you We came with one idea, but heard a wider need So we traded pride for patience and let wisdom lead No one stands alone here, no promise has to bend A careful conversation can turn a choice into a friend [Chorus] Many counselors bring good results When every voice is heard with respect We count the cost, we share the load And choose the path that love protects If time and strength must change their course We make the adjustments without regret Many counselors bring good results When we put another first in every step [Instrumental Interlude] [Bridge] A modest heart can say, I may not see it all A loving heart makes room before the answer calls And when the whole house joins the work that must be done The road grows bright with every willing one [Final Chorus] Many counselors bring good results When every voice is heard with respect We count the cost, we share the load And choose the path that love protects With thoughtful hands and listening hearts We build a peace that everyone can get Many counselors bring good results When we put another first in every step [Outro] We put another first in every step And walk together with respect
