Andrew Peterson - After All These Years lyrics
[Andrew Peterson - After All These Years lyrics]
Well after all these years
I would've thought that
All my fears would lay to rest
But, I still get scared
And I thought that all my struggles would
Be victories by now but I confess
That the mess is there
But oh, I know the work that You began
Is coming to an end someday
After all these years
Well after all this time
I thought the rhythms
And the rhymes would come so easy
But, it's still so hard
It's the same twelve notes, six strings
And a million little mysteries
And one broken heart
But oh, there is an everlasting song
I'm gonna sing along someday
'Cause You never let go you never let go
You led me by the hand into
A land of green and gold
And You never let go you never let go
Your Love endures forever wherever I go
After all these years
That's all that I know (Oh oh, oh oh)
From Illinois to Shiloh to the Warren
To the cliffs at Castle Rock
Well I've been longing for a land
But not everyone who wanders is lost
'Cause every road I walk is in
The palm of Your hands
And oh, there is a house with many rooms
Where I'm gonna be with You someday
'Cause You never let go you never let go
You led me by the hand into
A land of green and gold
And You never let go you never let go
Your Love endures forever wherever I go
After all these years you never let go
You never let go you led me by the hand into
A land of green and gold
And You never let go you never let go
Well after all the years have gone
And I have grown old
I'm gonna go home to the arms of a Father
Who will never let me go
Well after all these years
That's all that I know you never let go
You never let go
I would've thought that
All my fears would lay to rest
But, I still get scared
And I thought that all my struggles would
Be victories by now but I confess
That the mess is there
But oh, I know the work that You began
Is coming to an end someday
After all these years
Well after all this time
I thought the rhythms
And the rhymes would come so easy
But, it's still so hard
It's the same twelve notes, six strings
And a million little mysteries
And one broken heart
But oh, there is an everlasting song
I'm gonna sing along someday
'Cause You never let go you never let go
You led me by the hand into
A land of green and gold
And You never let go you never let go
Your Love endures forever wherever I go
After all these years
That's all that I know (Oh oh, oh oh)
From Illinois to Shiloh to the Warren
To the cliffs at Castle Rock
Well I've been longing for a land
But not everyone who wanders is lost
'Cause every road I walk is in
The palm of Your hands
And oh, there is a house with many rooms
Where I'm gonna be with You someday
'Cause You never let go you never let go
You led me by the hand into
A land of green and gold
And You never let go you never let go
Your Love endures forever wherever I go
After all these years you never let go
You never let go you led me by the hand into
A land of green and gold
And You never let go you never let go
Well after all the years have gone
And I have grown old
I'm gonna go home to the arms of a Father
Who will never let me go
Well after all these years
That's all that I know you never let go
You never let go
