Previously I thought I was done with this song, but now when I listen to it I feel ashamed. Now I have therefore redone it and removed all the "hassle". There are many who do better singing and music but I think this works better anyway, for me. 4 simple chords.

I was lost on a lonely highway
Blinded by the pouring rain
Felt the weight of all my troubles
Like a heavy ball and chain
Grace like a river
Washing over me
Mercy like the morning sun
Setting my soul free
Chains are broken
Blind eyes start to see
Grace like a river
Flows endlessly
.
I cried out in the darkest midnight
“Lord, I can’t make it on my own”
Then I heard a voice like thunder
Whisper:
“Child, come home”
.
I walked miles in the wrong direction
Tried to fight this fight alone
But Your strong hand reached down to save me
And gently led me home
Whisper:
“Child, come home”
.
Grace like a river
Washing over me
Mercy like the morning sun
Setting my soul free
Chains are broken
Blind eyes start to see
Grace like a river
Flows endlessly
.
I walked miles in the wrong direction
Tried to fight this fight alone
But Your strong hand reached down to save me
And gently led me home
I cried out in the darkest midnight
“Lord, I can’t make it on my own”
Then I heard a voice like thunder
Whisper:
“Child, come home”
.
Ain’t no sinner too far gone
Ain’t no night too dark
The cross still shines like a lighthouse
Calling every heart:
“Child, come home”
Calling every heart:
“Child, come home”more
