On My Way

Following on from the Just Be saga, I think I may now be On My Way. Whereas I still do not really know what it is that God has planned for me, He has rekindled the two passions of football and rock music within me. He is also definitely using me as a work in progress. I felt His presence with me in a big way at yet another Hungry night at Trinity yesterday. I know I have to leave some more of my old life in the rear view mirror and travel with a lighter load. I know that I have to stop looking at life with a same old, same old attitude, and let a new day be the start of something new. I have to continue to let go of the things that are holding me back. I need to look at the world with brand new eyes. So with God's help I'm now on my way again, not sure where to, but I'm going to get there. The road ahead will be much easier, assuming that I allow God to be the SatNav, but that's not to say that it will be easy, there is a big difference. Let's hope no more wrong turns down mindless cul-de-sacs. Here follows the words from the song, which is on the Return to Paradise album:

On My Way

Oh what a beautiful night
Couldn't get any clearer
Yeah what a wonderful sight
My old life in the rear view mirror

Hey now I'm travelin' light
Duffel bag and a six string
Yeah but it feels so right
To hear the bells of freedom ring

Gotta get away from
The same old same
Let a new day come
Start over again

Hey I was stuck in a grind
Little fish in a little pond
If I had a criminal mind
I'd have got myself a gun

Had to get away from
The ball and chain
Let a new day come
Or start goin' insane

I'm on my way
Don't know to where
But I'm gonna get there

On my way
Look at the world
With my brand new eyes

I can't believe I feel so high
I'm on my way tonight

Hey I was going to seed
Spreading out like a corn field
I had so much denial to feed
I was full of nothing real

I had to get away from
My old routine
Let a new day come
Start over again

I'm on my way
I don't know to where
But I'm gonna get there

On my way
Look at the world
Through my brand new eyes

I can't believe
I get to feel
So good
So high tonight

Starting tonight
There will be
A revival
In my world

Turn on the lights
And you'll see
This one man band
Is now a symphony

And the sun
Is gonna shine
Like a summer time
That has no end

And the love
I will find
I have no doubt
That it will be mine
The love I find
Will all be mine

On my way...
I have faith
The road up ahead
Gonna get much easier

On my way
Look at me now
With a brand new life

I can't believe
I feel so high
I'm on my way tonight
