Taught me to go
Long way from home some place where I'm not comfortable
Out on the water
I close my eyes and cast a line to the unknown
But I've broken more
Than just a window
No foundation on my floor
I'm shook to my core
I felt a feeling wondering if there's something more
But I lost my dad
To an early grave
Then I took three steps and I lost my way
No I don't wanna believe it, how I couldn't save myself
I took my preconceptions and I left them on the shelf
Cause they said that I need Jesus, or I'll end up down in hell
But I just can't believe it till I see it for myself

And I'll say
Hallelujah
I've come so far, from open arms
Hallelujah
Still I've grown so far from where I started

Now looking back, rose-colored glass
I wanna see the silver lining
Ghosts from my past
Don't make it easy, but believe me I'm still trying
No I don't wanna believe it, how I couldn't save myself
I took my preconceptions and I left them on the shelf
Cause they said that I need Jesus, or I'll end up down in hell
But I just can't believe it till I see it for myself

And I'll say
Hallelujah
I've come so far, from open arms
Hallelujah
Still I've grown so far from where I started

But I lost my friend, to an early grave
Cause he lost his mind and I came too late
But I lost my dad, to an early grave
Then I took three steps and I lost my way
No I don't wanna believe it, how I couldn't save myself
I took my preconceptions and I left them on the shelf
Cause they said that I need Jesus, or I'll end up down in hell
But I just can't believe it till I see it for myself

And I'll say
Hallelujah
I've come so far, from open arms
But, hallelujah
Still I've grown so far from where I started
