Today, I went for a run when we got back from skiing
and saw quite a few tracks that looked suspiciously like mountain lion tracks.
Let's just say that I kept my eyes open to see if I was really alone as I was running on the road,
and I was happy to find my way home without having to put up a fight.
It reminded me of this song by Andrew Peterson below,
and I found myself praying that you will always find your way back home...
by Andrew Peterson
When I look at you, boy
I can see the road that lies ahead
I can see the love and the sorrow
Bright fields of joy
Dark nights awake in a stormy bed
I wanna go with you, but I can't follow
So keep to the old roads
Keep to the old roads
And you'll find your way
Your first kiss, your first crush
The first time you know you're not enough
The first time there's no one there to hold you
The first time you pack it all up
And drive alone across America
Please remember the words that I told you
Keep to the old roads
Keep to the old roads
And you'll find your way
If love is what you're looking for
The old roads lead to an open door
And you'll find your way
Back home
And I know you'll be scared when you take up that cross
And I know it'll hurt, 'cause I know what it costs
And I love you so much and it's so hard to watch
But you're gonna grow up and you're gonna get lost
Just go back, go back
Go back, go back to the ancient paths
Lash your heart to the ancient mast
And hold on, boy, whatever you do
To the hope that's taken a hold of you
And you'll find your way
If love is what you're looking for
The old roads lead to an open door
And you'll find your way
Back home
Back home
Back home
