[al:What If It Is]
[00:25.73]you were born in the city
[00:28.43]but that was not home
[00:30.91]you were made for the country
[00:34.76]and dusty dirt roads
[00:37.74]you longed for the places
[00:41.09]where wild flowers grow
[00:44.73]
[00:50.80]even when you were little
[00:53.43]you knew there was more
[00:56.48]to life than just living
[00:59.87]it was there in your core
[01:03.05]you heard about jesus
[01:06.29]and knew he was yours
[01:09.88]
[01:15.59]you took his hand
[01:17.52]and you didn’t let go
[01:21.00]you let him take you
[01:24.00]down the hardest road
[01:27.19]it wasn’t easy
[01:30.58]but you never said no
[01:34.03]you took his hand
[01:37.07]and you didn’t let go
[01:41.82]
[01:44.64]when you went off to college
[01:47.62]you were the one
[01:50.86]who went to the parties
[01:53.81]but stuck to your guns
[01:56.99]and walked your friends home
[01:59.63]after they had too much
[02:03.98]
[02:09.90]you were pretty and blue eyed
[02:12.90]but all the boys knew
[02:15.87]there were lines in the sand
[02:17.71]they could not cross with you
[02:21.99]and it made some night lonely
[02:25.02]but you made it through
[02:29.16]
[02:34.85]you took his hand
[02:37.18]and you didn’t let go
[02:40.57]you let him take you
[02:43.04]down the hardest road
[02:46.68]it wasn’t easy
[02:49.53]but you never said no
[02:52.65]you took his hand
[02:56.05]and you didn’t let go
[02:59.38]
[03:00.96]some called you stubborn
[03:03.28]feisty and hard
[03:05.82]but you were driven
[03:07.94]to live out what was there in your heart
[03:12.09]and sometimes your decisions meant
[03:16.19]you had to stand alone
[03:18.46]but when it came to loving
[03:20.59]it was there in your bones
[03:24.13]
[03:28.77]so that day on the river
[03:31.26]when that young girl slipped
[03:34.49]you reached out and grabbed her
[03:37.78]and held to her wrist
[03:41.01]and as you lost to the current
[03:44.16]you never loosened your grip
[03:47.91]
[03:53.67]you took her hand
[03:56.19]and you didn’t let go
[03:59.18]you let her take you
[04:02.46]down the hardest road
[04:05.29]though it wasn’t easy
[04:09.04]you never said no
[04:11.67]you took her hand
[04:14.81]and you didn’t let go
[04:18.55]you took her hand
[04:21.03]and you didn’t let go
[04:34.50]
