The Path
Agonal Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I cried out and lo you heard me
I believed and I was made free
All of the colors brought to life
Your love has changed me

The path that leads to freedom
Is a path that leads to you
A life within your kingdom
Is the life that I choose

I fall down and humbly praise
For I am not worthy of your grace
Everlasting love and mercy
Redemption through faith

Through this life I try
To realize
The reasons why I
Fall away
See the light this time
To free our minds




Freedom's honed in
That won't fall away
