I can see you standing in the hallway by the stairs You were laughing at some joke you said that you heard somewhere I swear I still can feel the smile on my face as we stepped into the kitchen It was another time another place
I recall the rain was pounding on the window Then we watched the sun come breaking through the clouds We thought that those days could never end though Way down deep we knew they always do
Remember when we reached the fork I took off to the right You stood there for a moment I felt you watching me fall out of sight I turned and called your name but you did not respond I just hung my head, I knew I'd left but I was thinking you were gone
I recall the rain was pounding on my windshield As I made my way into the westward wind I knew that I had left behind a minefield When up ahead my whole life was to begin
This life is a vapor you know We all need to learn to make amends as we go
Down along this winding road I've seen my twists and turns I know I suffer most for lessons I refuse to learn But I met my Redeemer I received God's only Son and He's given me the ministry of reconciliation
Now it's me who's pounding on the window I have come to beg if I have to Please consider Christ, He died for your sins so You could be free, He died for me, He died for you too
Yes I know Jesus is knocking at your door There's no matter where you are or where you've been He's come to give you life and so much more and all that you need to do is let Him in . . .
