Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1 I got dirt on my boots and rust on my hands Calluses thick like the roots in this land Mama said pray, Daddy said work I learned both lessons the hard way first I’ve slept in my truck with the radio low Asked God questions I didn’t wanna know I ain’t proud of every mile I’ve been But I ain’t quit walkin’ yet, amen Chorus I’m still walkin’ with the weight of the cross Still believin’ even when it costs Some days I stumble, some nights I crawl But mercy meets me every time I fall I don’t shine bright, I don’t talk tall I just keep answerin’ when He calls Yeah, I’m still walkin’ Verse 2 I’ve turned my back on the light before Chose my own way, kicked in the door Thought I was strong, thought I was right Found out real quick I ain’t built for the fight There’s a scar on my knuckles, one on my soul Both remind me I ain’t in control Grace don’t come clean, it comes true Like rain on dust, it pulls me through Chorus I’m still walkin’ with the weight of the cross Still believin’ even when it costs Some days I stumble, some nights I crawl But mercy meets me every time I fall I don’t shine bright, I don’t talk tall I just keep answerin’ when He calls Yeah, I’m still walkin’ Bridge (Gospel-blues feel, half-time) I don’t deserve it, never did But love like that don’t ask what I did It just says, “Son, come on back home” Puts my name on a weathered stone Verse 3 If you see me quiet, don’t mean I’m strong Just means I’ve been prayin’ all night long I don’t lift my head, I lift my hands Try to be the man God says I am I’ll give Him credit for every breath Every sunrise, every step past death If there’s any good you see in me That’s the Lord workin’, nothin’ else to see Final Chorus I’m still walkin’ with the weight of the cross Still believin’ even when it costs Some days I stumble, some nights I crawl But mercy meets me every time I fall I don’t want glory, I don’t want it all I just want faith when the shadows fall Yeah, I’m still walkin’ Outro Dust on the road, light up ahead Blood on the cross where hope was shed Ain’t finished yet, far from done Still walkin’… by the grace of the Son
