We build our roads in dirt and stone Over
the hills we conquer The
rivers we challenge with broken bone And
of the seas we ponder Throughout the swamps we sink in sand Then in the desert we slip Like in this sinful life we land Because of everyday’s guilt trip We
push and pull against the threat Without
a clue to what’s wrong Then
run our conscience of regret And sing our agony’s song We can't do what's right in this life And the bad we do so good We seem to turn the best to strife And don’t succeed where we should It’s
all our fault we tell ourselves Into
the mirror we rip But
as the eye of the heart deeply delves We
see it’s just another guilt trip We
have built our road all alone This
road made from guilt and shame Is
there nothing that will atone? Must
I carry all the blame? I
cry out from this life of sin “O
God, remove Satan’s grip!” and
He enters His faithful plan to win Which has taken me off this guilt trip Now sin and shame is washed away In the blood of Jesus’ name For He’s the One who came to say “Into my hands lay your blame.” Onto
a road I’ve never known Jesus
Christ has lifted me And out of this life’s guilt trip there has grown A
journey where He did set me free Selah
