Verse 1 My walk with God began a long, long time ago Quiet as a whisper, but never let me go Faith sat in the shadows, steady, strong, and true While I chased down life, not knowing what I knew My wife stood there beside me, eyes fixed on the light She saw a road ahead I couldn’t see that night Always gently nudgin’, never pushin’ too hard She believed in me when I wandered far Chorus I thought I knew what heartache was, thought I understood the pain But you don’t really feel the weight until it calls your name Now I speak His name out loud, I’m not afraid to stand I walk this road with open eyes and faith held in my hands I’m carried by His mercy, forgiven by His love I am not alone down here I am a Son of God Verse 2 We raised our kids, we built our lives, we worked from sun to sun Watched family and old friends break before the battles won I told myself I felt their hurt, thought I knew their fears But empathy’s a shallow well until it’s filled with tears Then the doctor said the words that changed my point of view I fell down on my knees, Lord, I came runnin’ back to You I saw my faith was there, but hidden deep inside So I opened up my heart and let You be my guide Chorus I thought I knew what heartache was, thought I understood the pain But you don’t really feel the weight until it calls your name Now I speak His name out loud, I’m not afraid to stand I walk this road with open eyes and faith held in my hands I’m carried by His mercy, forgiven by His love I am not alone down here I am a Son of God Verse 3 My wife stood strong and lifted me with grace I can’t explain She smiled through the storms and helped me shoulder pain Then a brother reached me early, verses every dawn Words of truth that pulled me up and helped me carry on I found my Brothers in Christ, I never knew before Now we meet each morning, faith knockin’ at the door We share our doubts and victories, our scars and where we’ve been We give each other strength to rise and walk with Him Bridge Some mornings hurt like yesterday, some nights won’t let me sleep But God walks every step with me through valleys wide and deep Only He knows what’s waitin’ down that final road I see Till then I’ll walk it grateful, Lord, trusting You with me Final Chorus I don’t fear what’s comin’ next, don’t regret where I’ve been Every broken piece of me is held in Him With my wife right by my side and brothers strong and true My path is lit by faith and love that leads me back to You I’ll walk toward my destination, heart humble, spirit strong With pride in who I’ve become I am a Son of God Outro Yeah, my way is lit by love I am a Son of God
