I wandered off the highway
‘Cause I had to do things my way
My chosen path turned hope to dread…
I met a perfect stranger
A real life changer…
We talked a while
This is what He said…

(Chorus)

“Son, you look a little bit road weary…
Your eyes are glazed
But they don’t need to be…
I can share your heavy load…
Let’s walk together on this rugged road…
Let’s talk together on this rugged road…”

I said: “I’m happy that I found you,
I’ve been kinda lost without you”
His open heart just set my spirit free…
I listened as he spoke
And the clouds above us broke…
He didn’t preach,
He just lifted me…

He said:

(Chorus)

That night He stayed beside me
Like a Northern star to guide me
With the risin’ sun, he slipped away…
I travel on in His care
Knowin’ that He’ll be there…
When times get dark,
I hear Him say…

(Chorus)

Most folks choose the highway Shun that heavy load,
But I got saved…
On that rugged…road…
