From the recording Love & Persistence
Lyrics
Until the Day that I Walked Through
On a tree-lined street, in a two-story home
a young boy was running up and down the stairs alone
more lonesome than most, I suppose
empty hallways and doors that were always closed.
Jesus, I guess I opened the door
maybe You opened it too
all I know is I never did see much light
until the day that I walked through
On the TV I saw a boy and his father
he was showing his son how to cast his line farther
together down at their secret fishing hole
showing him how to hold his very first fishing pole
Jesus, I guess I opened the door
maybe You opened it too
all I know is I never did see much light
until the day that I walked through
Now I’m thankful for tender mercies of course
with all that was absent and all that was lost
puzzle pieces you never know that you miss
tonight I tuck my son in with a good night kiss
Jesus, I guess I opened the door
Or maybe You opened it too
all I know is I never did see much light
until the day that I walked through.
