God bless the broken road ahead of me,
Whether I go by plane or train or car,
A million miles to my destiny
The orange horizon’s all that I can see,
Above me there are dancing, sparkling stars
God bless the broken road ahead of me
I stop and rest my wounds beneath a tree
And let the air run through my jagged scars.
A thousand miles to my destiny
Will Heaven hear my everlasting plea?
My feet are weary; I have traveled far.
God bless the broken road ahead of me.
The sky of night becomes a jet black sea,
And now the angels against darkness spar
A hundred miles to my destiny
My ankles bound in chains, though I am free,
Off into the light to help in the war.
God bless the broken road ahead of me
Until I walk upon my destiny.
