Thousand Miles

I have stolen, Lord, let me give  I have left Your house a fugitive  I have wandered in my own way  Squandered everything You gave  But my dying heart You saved and let me live  I have cursed the air and clenched my fists  I have hungered for Your righteousness  I have tried to walk the line  I drew between Your heart and mine  But You forgive me every time the mark is missed  So take my broken offering and make it whole  And set my feet upon the road that leads me home  Let me walk as one fixed upon the goal  Even though I've got a thousand miles to go  I have sought Your grace in my defense  I have plundered Your magnificence  Until my journey is complete  I pray the Lord my soul to keep  That I might sow what I have reaped  From Your great love  As I struggle for Your hand  You use me in ways I can't understand  You take this sinful man and renew me  Working through me
