Straight Paths (Independence Day)

 

Walk with me

Along straight paths

I’ve walked this way before

I’ll walk with you

I’m always near, every step together

 

He makes the path, the path makes us

We wonder and we wander

The Light of heaven and songs of freedom

Guiding us to independence day

As the straight path takes us home

 

Walk with me

Along straight paths

Until your own strength grows

I’ll walk for you

And carry you, every step together

 

He makes the path, the path makes us

We wonder and we wander

The Light of heaven and songs of freedom

Guiding us to independence day

As the straight path takes us home

 

Walk with me

Along straight paths

Until you know your strength

I’ll hold both hands

And help you stand, every step together

 

He makes the path, the path makes us

We wonder and we wander

The Light of heaven and songs of freedom

Guiding us to independence day

As the straight path takes us home

 

Walk with me

Along straight paths

Until you know the way

I’ll hold you close

You’ll not be lost, every step together

 

He makes the path, the path makes us

We wonder and we wander

The Light of heaven and songs of freedom

Guiding us to independence day

As the straight path takes us home

 

Walk with me

Along straight paths

Until you find your way

I’ll shine the Light

I’m at your side, every step together

 

He makes the path, the path makes us

We wonder and we wander

The Light of heaven and songs of freedom

Guiding us to independence day

As the straight path takes us home

 

Walk with me

Along straight paths

You’re beginning now to run

I’ll cheer you on

From just behind, every step together

 

He makes the path, the path makes us

We wonder and we wander

The Light of heaven and songs of freedom

Guiding us to independence day

As the straight path takes us home

 

Walk with me

Along straight paths

You’ll stumble and you’ll stray

I’ll wait for you

This path is true, every step together

 

He makes the path, the path makes us

We wonder and we wander

The Light of heaven and songs of freedom

Guiding us to independence day

As the straight path takes us home

 

Walk with me

Along straight paths

Now the path is yours

I’ll walk with you

I’m always near, every step together

 

He makes the path, the path makes us

We wonder and we wander

The Light of heaven and songs of freedom

Guiding us to independence day

As the straight path takes us home

Let the straight path lead you home
