I can see what's in front of my eyes
There ain't no thrills or cheap disguises
No one said it would be easy on the road
But you'll never need to be alone

I can see what you see
But I can see it in a brand new light
You can say you're a child of his
But you're never going to get it right
Till you travel the road of the Lord

Got to travel, travel the rough road
Got to see it's your only way
Got to travel, travel the rough road
Keep on running to the light of day

There's the peace of knowing that you are here
There's something there that you can't resist
He gives you Power to understand
He gives you light and a helping hand

I can tell that you can tell
That I can tell you where to start
Accept the things that you can't change
Trust Him with all your heart
As you travel the road of your own

Got to travel, travel the rough road
Got to see it's your only way
Got to travel, travel the rough road
Keep on running to the light of day
