Road of Gratitude (Remix)

Thank You Jesus for the road I travel

Thank You for Your hand upon my life

I sit behind the wheel and watch the sunrise fade

Thinking of the miles that I have made

Lord, it isn't easy, the path is long and cold

But I feel Your presence, a promise that You hold

I remember brothers who didn't reach the end

Who fell along the highway, my companion and my friend

It’s only by Your mercy I made it safely through

Yes Lord, I’m standing here, giving all the praise to You

Oh, I thank You Lord for keeping me moving

Through the danger and the dark, Your light is proving

For every safe journey, for the life that I live

I have nothing but my heart and my thanks to give

Yes Lord, thank You Jesus, You hold me in Your hand

I am grateful, oh I’m grateful, in this weary land

And Lord, I thank You for the gift that stands by me

Refine Malambo, a treasure meant to be

She keeps the home fire burning when I am far away

With steady hands and kindness, through the night and through the day

She carries every burden, she loves them like her own

Refine, you are the blessing that I have always known

Oh, I thank You Lord for keeping me moving

Through the danger and the dark, Your light is proving

For every safe journey, for the life that I live

I have nothing but my heart and my thanks to give

Yes Lord, thank You Jesus, You hold me in Your hand

I am grateful, oh I’m grateful, in this weary land

For Victor Hansonje, my son, my pride and joy

For Naomi Hansonje, my precious little girl

You are the reason I fight to return home

Through the deepest valley, I never walk alone

Praise Him, hallelujah, for the shelter of my house

Glory to the Father, for my children and my spouse

So when the road is heavy and the heavy rain descends

I remember all the brothers, my fallen fellow friends

But I press on with spirit, with grace upon my soul

Knowing that my Father is the one who keeps control

It’s not my own wisdom, it’s not my own design

It’s the protection of my Savior, everything divine

Oh, I thank You Lord for keeping me moving

Through the danger and the dark, Your light is proving

For every safe journey, for the life that I live

I have nothing but my heart and my thanks to give

Yes Lord, thank You Jesus, You hold me in Your hand

I am grateful, oh I’m grateful, in this weary land

Safe journey, Lord, thank You for the way

Refine, I love you, Amen

Victor and Naomi, you are my heart

Thank You Jesus, for never parting

Amen, Amen.
