We've Come a Long Way
Journey of Faith: Overcoming Trials with Jesus
Lyrics
We’ve come a long way (we’ve come along way)
We’ve made significant progress from where we started.
Sometimes it was an uphill journey
The journey hasn’t always been easy; at times, it was difficult.
Sometimes on the rough side of the mountain
There were occasions when things were particularly challenging.
But we’ve come a long way we’ve come a long way
We’ve made considerable progress, reiterated for emphasis.
Leaning and depending on Jesus we’ve come a long way
We’ve advanced by relying and leaning on the support of Jesus.
Sometimes i had to cry all night long (we’ve come a long way)
There were times of intense emotional struggle and sadness.
But the lord god almighty never left inc alone (we’ve come a long way)
Despite the challenges, God was always present and supportive.
We’ve come a long way (we’ve come along way)
Reiteration of the significant progress made.
Sometimes it was an uphill journey
Similar to line 2, emphasizing the difficulties faced in the journey.
Sometimes on the rough side of the mountain
Highlighting specific tough periods encountered.
But we’ve come a long way we’ve come a long way
Emphasizing once again the considerable progress made.
Leaning and depending on Jesus we’ve come a long way
Reinforcing the idea of progress through reliance on Jesus.
Sometimes i was up and sometime i was down
Describing fluctuations between good and bad times.
Sometimes i was almost level to the ground
Times when circumstances were particularly difficult.
Sometimes i was right and sometimes i was wrong
Expressing the mix of right and wrong decisions made.
But i kept on praying and he made me strong
Despite difficulties, perseverance through prayer resulted in strength.
We’ve come a long way (we’ve come along way)
Restating the significant progress achieved.
Sometimes it was an uphill journey
Recalling the uphill struggles faced in the journey.
Sometimes on the rough side of the mountain
Reflecting on challenging phases encountered.
But we’ve come a long way we’ve come a long way
Emphasizing the journey's progress once again.
Leaning and depending on Jesus we’ve come a long way
Highlighting the role of faith and reliance on Jesus in progress.
When the lights go out and the crowd gets thin
Describing moments of isolation and abandonment.
When your friends move out, that’s when the lord steps in
When others leave, faith in God becomes prominent and reassuring.
