The Walk
Before time, before space
You foresaw, You preordained
My life, my needs
Everything I would be
Far Beyond, my faith
I can’t conceive, I can’t explain
The walk You took to save my sinful soul
You lived a life – that you didn’t have to live
You died a death – that You didn’t have to die
Eternal life – a gift You didn’t have to give
You took the walk – only You could walk alone
The pain, you faced
All alone, against the world You made
Broken heart, intense pain
a lonely cross, that bore my name
My walk, my faith
Expressing thanks I can’t repay
I will walk but I’m never alone
You lived a life – that you didn’t have to live
You died a death – that You didn’t have to die
Eternal life – You didn’t have to give
You took the walk – only You could walk alone
I pledge my life to live every day
As a shining light in your Holy Eyes
And I’ll never be ashamed to bear your name
Under the fear of death, bowing only before You
Never forgetting, the pain you bore
To save this ungrateful child, this filthy whore
Take this prodigal son, who’s come undone
Make the walk I take in You, a profitable one
