[Intro – Brief Acoustic Guitar and Pedal Steel] Mmm, ooo [Verse 1 – Intimate Male Baritone] I drove all night through a hard blue rain, With yesterday riding in the passing lane. At a riverside bend, I killed the lights, Watched the dawn pull gold from the edge of night. Then a whisper rose where the wild reeds sway: Son, you don't have to lose another day. [Pre-Chorus – Gentle Build] I left my fear on that muddy shore, Took one breath, then one step more. [Chorus – Full Band, Warm Harmonies] Step into the river, Let the old road end. The God who parts the waters Can make a way again. Stormlight over Eden, Mercy breaking through. With every step of faith, Lord, I'm coming home to You. [Verse 2 – Acoustic Groove, Hammond Organ] I've chased those towers and their neon crowns, Built my dreams where the rain washed down. But the Shepherd called through the cottonwood trees: You don't have to earn My love for you. With worn-out boots at the waterline, I gave Him the wheel and the rest of my life. [Pre-Chorus – Rising Harmony] I couldn't see where the crossing would lead, But I knew the voice that was calling me. [Chorus – Anthemic, Open and Soulful] Step into the river, Let the old road end. The God who parts the waters Can make a way again. Stormlight over Eden, Mercy breaking through. With every step of faith, Lord, I'm coming home to You. [Instrumental Turnaround – Four Bars, Fiddle and Clean Guitar] [Bridge – Stripped Back, Then Build] Not by the strength of these two hands, Not by a promise built on sand. Your Spirit moves; I won't turn back. You make a road where there ain't no track. [Final Chorus – Full Band, Small Gospel Harmonies] Step into the river, Let the old road end. The God who parts the waters Can make a way again. Stormlight over Eden, Your love is breaking through. With every step of faith, Lord, We're coming home to You. [Outro – Soft Male Lead, Pedal Steel Resolves] Ooo, coming home to You. One more step— I'm coming home to You. [End]
