# LEAD ME DOWN YOUR ROAD [INTRO — fingerpicked acoustic guitar, soft dobro, distant electric guitar] [VERSE 1 — intimate, conversational] I've spent enough time chasing Every road that looked like gold I've learned that just because it's open Doesn't mean I'm meant to go So Lord, before I take another step Before I trust my eyes Teach me how to hear Your voice And recognize Your way [PRE-CHORUS — bass enters softly] I don't need to know the whole road I just need to know the next one [CHORUS — full country band, warm brother harmonies] Lead me down Your road, Lord Show me where to go Teach me how to walk Your ways When I don't already know Give me eyes to see the truth Give me a heart that's willing I don't want to just hear Your Word I want to live it Lead me down Your road, Lord Keep me close when I wander If Your commands are where life is found Then that's where I want to go [VERSE 2 — steady country groove] I've chosen roads that looked right And ended up lost somewhere I've followed what my heart said Like my heart knew better than You But there's a peace I can't explain When I stop and let You lead Like a restless soul remembers What it was created to need [PRE-CHORUS — harmony builds] I don't need every answer I just need a faithful heart [CHORUS — bigger] Lead me down Your road, Lord Show me where to go Teach me how to walk Your ways When I don't already know Give me eyes to see the truth Give me a heart that's willing I don't want to just hear Your Word I want to live it Lead me down Your road, Lord Keep me close when I wander If Your commands are where life is found Then that's where I want to go [BRIDGE — stripped back, acoustic + dobro] Give me wisdom when I'm blinded Give me courage when I'm scared Give me strength to choose the narrow road When the easy road is there Let Your Word become my compass Let Your truth become my song And when I stumble, pull me back And teach me to keep walking on [HARMONY VOCAL — building] Keep walking on... [LEAD VOCAL] Yeah, keep walking on. [FINAL CHORUS — full band, anthemic] Lead me down Your road, Lord Show me where to go Teach me how to walk Your ways Everywhere this life may go Give me eyes to see the truth Give me a heart that's willing I don't want to just hear Your Word I want to live it Lead me down Your road, Lord Keep me close when I wander If Your commands are where life is found Then that's where I want to go [FINAL TAG — harmonized, slowing slightly] I'll walk it when it's easy I'll walk it when it's hard Your way is still Your way And I'll follow where You are [OUTRO — acoustic guitar] [LEAD VOCAL — softly] Lead me down Your road, Lord... One step at a time.
