Lyrics
On a highway in the desert, I spied the road ahead
Carrying a knapsack with a napkin on my head
Nothing much to guide me, but a single book I'd read
The heat beat down like a raging wolf, almost left me for dead
He's the Lord of the ages
He's the God of the road
He's the path of the wanderer
In the city of gold
An endless river hope of your heart and ya soul
A well you can drink of a true friend to hold
I wondered when the road would end as one foot led the next
But there seemed no end in sight as my heart bled in my chest
I fell down worn head in the sand said Lord I'm all but spent
Have mercy I don't want my life to be over yet
I'm drowning in a sorrowed land
I have no one else
I see the sun on the horizon
You are all I've left
He's the Lord of the ages
He's the God of the road
He's the path of the wanderer
In the city of gold
An endless river hope of your heart and ya soul
A well you can drink of a true friend to hold
I heard a voice in the wilderness
Leave that old world far behind, follow me beyond the fence
Pick up your cross and don't look back, and deny yourself
Pay heed to the book you read, the words come from myself
I'm the Lord of the ages
I'm the God of the road
I'm the path of the wanderer
In the city of gold
An endless river hope of your heart and ya soul
A well you can drink of a true friend to hold
I'm the Lord of the ages
I'm the God of the road
