This is the Great Adventure

Steven Curtis Chapman - The Great Adventure

Saddle up your horses

Started out this morning in the usual way
Chasing thoughts inside my head of all I had to do today
Another time around the circle try to make it better than the last
I opened up the Bible and I read about me
Said I'd been a prisoner and God's grace had set me free
And somewhere between the pages it hit me like a lightning bolt
I saw a big frontier in front of me and I heard somebody say "let's go"!

Saddle up your horses we've got a trail to blaze
Through the wild blue yonder of God's amazing grace
Let's follow our leader into the glorious unknown
This is a life like no other - this is The Great Adventure

Come on get ready for the ride of your life
Gonna leave long faced religion in a cloud of dust behind
And discover all the new horizons just waiting to be explored
This is what we were created for

We'll travel over, over mountains so high
We'll go through valleys below
Still through it all we'll find that
This is the greatest journey that the human heart will ever see
The love of God will take us far beyond our wildest dreams
Yeah... oh saddle up your horses... come on get ready to ride


Ok, here it is... the first of I'm sure many posts about my life. I thought I'd start off this thing with the lyrics to this song by Steven Curtis Chapman. It was a song that use to really make me want to get up in the morning and discover the world.

I'm ready to embark on a new journey, one I want to document. Before I get more into that, I plan on giving some of the back story of how I got to this point. Woohoo, life is the great adventure!
