Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
V1 You say you're so tired of empty promises
You're feelin' stuck and
it's like paralysis
You say you need to escape, well This Is the Way
V2 This string of dark days
You need a dream so real you can touch it
C'mon before it's too late
This Is the Way
CH This Is the Way (this is the way)
This is the road we're supposed to take
You gotta' trust what I say
This Is the Way
V3 I got a gameplan..
and I believe in it
You wanna' diagram
that is immediate
I know you don't wanna' wait, well
This Is the Way
(solo over verse)
(repeat chorus)

A friend forwarded this song, because I just sent an email with this title to our prayer supporters. My husband is on a missions trip stranded on the border between Kenya & Tanzania with a broken transmission. We had been praying, and learned 2 mechanics from Nairobi are on their way with a tranny, will install it, and ride along back to Nairobi. Added bonus Doyle looks like my father who went to be with the Lord 32 years ago, and my husband plays mandolin. Listening and watching Doyle was like having the 2 most important men in my life (other than Jesus) right here with me. Thanks.
