Blessed for the Journey

Lyrics by Chris Good & Seth Hendricks
Music by Seth Hendricks

Turn, from the things that dull and blind.
Where moth and rust consume, and thieves run wild in your mind. 
When the trappings of your own life, have firmly taken hold. 
Well you can wander in the desert, but the blessing's for the one who comes back home.

So hear the call, that stirs you restless in the night.
Let it awake and move you onward, and in the morning light a new name may arise. 
Though you wrestled with the struggle, do not fear.
For there may come a time amidst all of the suffering a new light will appear. 

May we walk with each other as we travel down this road.
Joining hands as we cross to the unknown, wherever we may go. 
For we were blessed, we were blessed for the journey from the start. 

So claim the call upon your life and be set free.
Free to heal and serve and wonder, into the person that you were meant to be.       
And though this body may be broken, we can still be made one.
For we are here to be a light in this world, we shine on, thy kingdom come. 

May we walk with each other as we travel down this road.
Joining hands as we cross to the unknown, wherever we may go. 
For we were blessed, we were blessed for the journey from the start. 

Joy when the sorrow aches when you feel alone, and you see no escape.
Hope when the darkness falls, when your way is lost, and your strength is gone.
Don't let your life be small, and let this grace carry you on.
To live, to love, and to belong .
You live, you love, and you belong. 
We live, we love and we belong.
