This Country Road Lyrics

Oh gather 'round let the country soul speak

In the quiet of the morning where the faith runs deep

Down by the creek under a willow tree

I find my peace where the waters agree

The sun paints the sky with a golden brush

In God's own country in God's own country in the hush

Mama told me about the power of prayer

Daddy taught me how to find solace there

In the heartland with a simple song

Where the grass is green and the days are long

This country road takes me home

To the place where I belong

With a Bible in my hand

I walk the land so grand

God's love as vast as the open plains

In every seed that the earth contains

Boots dusty from the path I tread

Hat tipped back upon my head

The horizon stretches wide and far

Under the watchful eye of the morning star

Fields of gold and skies so blue

A testament to what faith can do

We gather 'round the fire's light

Thanking God for the country night

This country road takes me home

To the place where I belong

With a Bible in my hand

I walk the land so grand

God's love as vast as the open plains

In every seed that the earth contains

And when the storms come rolling in

I lift my eyes let the rain begin

It washes clean the soil and soul

In the heartland where I play my role

Ohhh ohhhhh ohhhh

This country road takes me home

To the place where I belong

With a Bible in my hand

I walk the land so grand

God's love as vast as the open plains

In every seed that the earth contains

So here's to the land and here's to the Lord

In this country life we're never bored

Hand in hand we find our way

In God's loving arms we'll always stay
