A good friend and co-laborer in the wild world of Ministry Formation is an incredible artist. A few days after writing this post, Lizzy King reached out to me with some lyrics for a song she was working on that spoke deeply to my heart. I wanted to “repost” this blog but include Lizzy’s music. Take a moment. Pause. Listen. Hear.

 
 

Lyrics

I saw the end of that road
I saw the end of that road
I saw the end, I saw the end,
I saw the end of that road

I saw the end, I was trapped in a bathroom
A woman was telling me I was a lion,
And the Lord had plans for me, I couldn't believe her,
I could do nothing but cry tears of sorrow,
But she kept going, these aren't tears of healing,
I could do nothing but yell at the ceiling
That this is the end of the road for me

I saw the end of that road
I saw the end of that road
I saw the end, I saw the end,
I saw the end of that road

I saw the end with my head in a toilet
I saw the end in my eyes 
When I looked in the mirror the person that stood right in front of me, I could not recognize.
I can remember the time,
But I can't remember the night.

I saw the end of that road
I saw the end of that road
I saw the end, I saw the end,
I saw the end of that road

Take a shot of holy wine
Take communion with liquor
I can't find the sacred line
Because both made be sicker
Two roads ended in the same place
This feeling I chase will always fade

(But)

I was never alone
I was never alone
I saw the end, I saw the end, 
But I was never alone
