Touchdown Hallelujah

He said he was the answer

Just a flag on the play

Yellow lines on the pavement

I watched him fade away

Packed my things in a hatchback

That cheap cologne on my sleeve

Took the long way out of that mess

Felt the chains just… leave

I’ve been stuck on the sideline praying

Talking big game

Never changing

Now I’m done with the talk

I’m saying

I’m ready for the breakaway

Jesus

Throw me for a touchdown

I’m finally finished with that clown

So Lord

Let me put some points on the scoreboard

New playbook

New heart

I’m all Yours

Jesus

Throw me for a touchdown

Stadium shaking at the sound

So Lord

Let me put some points on the scoreboard

Phone buzzing with his name still

I just watch it go dark

Used to fall for the same lines

Now I’m guarding my heart

Got my feet on the white chalk

Breath fog in the night air

If Your grace is the green field

Then I’m already there

I’ve been scared of the open spaces

Running back to the losing places

Now I’m done with the small

Safe cages

I’m stepping to the line today

From the kickoff to the end zone

You were there when I felt alone

When I dropped it

When I lost hope

You still called my name

My name

[guitars swell

Gang vocals]

Now I’m lining up

Eyes up

Hands open

I’m all in

Yeah

If Your love is the bright lights

Then I’m done hiding in the stands
