My Story
Addison Road Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This is not a melody to get the feelings off my chest
This is not a pop song written for the radio
These are just my thoughts and what I'm praying for
If this is my story, if this is my song
Then I want to be a part of something beautiful
If this is my journey, then show me your road
There's just too many times I only think of me
'Cause I get so consumed with my opportunities
When my last breath brings me to the feet of God
I want to hear him say I lived for his glory
Colors paint the evening sky
The sun is shining giving light
Stars light up the atmosphere
But we're the reason God came here
We are his story, we are his song
A beautiful melody that shows the world his love
When we're on this journey, when we're on this road
We are a part of the greatest story ever told

This is probably not your usual response to this song, but I cried like a baby. Something about the lyric "I want to be part of something beautiful," felt like the answer to a question I've had for a long time. Thank you for letting God use you.

love this song! I can't stop playing it! And that's saying something because I almost never play songs over and over, because I get tired of them or they get annoying, but this one I could listen to all day long :)

I am 25 and I have been in hospitals because of a disorder. Currently I live in a home for the disabled but I truly don't believe I have a disorder anymore because God has dramatically changed my life inwardly since I learned how to walk by the Spirit and not by the flesh trying to do things in my own strength but in the power of God because of the books Heavenly man and Living Water cause we both are nobody special. We are dust but God is the King of the Universe Hallelujah Glory be to God Almighty!

I have a LONG story. Ultimately God brought me out of some addictions and showed me His light and hope, and have me a solid place to stand. In Him. He is so great, and because of my story I've helped others see God's glory. I'm nothing without Him, I want the whole world to see His love and that in Him you can be transformed, all it takes is trust and a relationship with Him.

My story is that in my own personal life I struggle with that fact that people don't treat each other with love. Life is too short to have hatred in your heart. 1 Corinthians 13 is my favorite passage..it says so much, and speaks so deeply to how I view the world.
