A Country Road in Two Seasons

[Verse 1]
I pass the whelming flood
That pours into this restless town
Through the blinding fog
That fills the air from sky to ground
Beneath a midnight sky
That casts a shadow on these hills
Hope, the only spark
That burns from deep within me still

[Pre-Chorus]
Winter has come, winter has come
Darkness is forcing its way through
But I'm not overrun, I'm not overrun
'Cause I'm running into You

[Chorus]
As I make my way through this God-forsaking land
Watching devils laugh and drunkards clap their hands
Chilling winds pull me in and ask me for a dance
But I run on past
Up the road as crooked as the devil's smile
Past the open fields where dogs and wolves run wild
And I tell myself, "In just another mile
I'll be safe at last"

[Interlude]
Ooh
Ooh

[Verse 2]
I pass the gentle stream
That whispers underneath my feet
Through the silver dew
That glimmers on both grass and leaves
Beneath a midnight sky
That sets the world alight with stars
Peace, the brightest one
Sends its warmth into my heart

[Pre-Chorus]
Autumn has come, autumn has come
Sunlight is forcing its way through
And I am undone, I am undone
'Cause You're coming into view

[Chorus]
As I make my way through this God-beloved land
Watching angels laugh and children clap their hands
Gentle winds pull me in and ask me for a dance
And we dance our last, we keep dancing
Up the road as blessed as the devil's frown
Past the open fields where lions and lambs lie down
And I tell myself, "This is my final round
And I'm not coming back"

[Bridge]
The seasons have come, the seasons have gone
They've given this road a different hue
The winter and fall, I've walked through them all
But this road keeps leading me to You
The seasons have come, the seasons have gone
They've given this road a different hue
The winter and fall, I've walked through them all
But this road keeps leading me to You

[Outro]
God is my shepherd, He draws me close to His side
He waters my soul in rivers I thought had all dried
Yea, though I walk through valleys where my faith loses sight
I will not fear for You are here, even in the night
