You
walk
a
mile
on
this
dusty
road
Trying
to
carry
such
a
heavy
load
Thinking
it’
s
your
charm
that
leads
the
way
But
the
bright
lights
fade
at
the
end
of
the
day
It
ain't
about
the
shine
or
the
words
you
speak
Or
the
hollow
promises
of
the
weak
Divine
connections,
they
aren't
built
on
pride
They
need
a
heart
that’
s
got
nothing
to
hide
It’
s
character
that
holds
the
line
When
the
stars
refuse
to
align
Humility
keeps
you
ready
to
learn
Waiting
for
the
lessons
that
you
gotta
earn
Hope
keeps
your
eyes
on
the
rising
sun
Even
when
the
race
has
just
begun
Yeah,
character
is
the
solid
ground
Where
the
blessing
of
the
truth
is
found
Humility
is
the
seed
you
gotta
sow
To
let
the
grace
of
the
spirit
grow
It
keeps
you
teachable,
keeps
you
small
So
He
can
lift
you
up
when
you’
re
prone
to
fall
And
hope
is
the
anchor
in
the
shifting
sand
Holding
tight
to
the
promise
in
His
hand
Don't
despise
the
day
of
a
small
start
Keep
a
hopeful
fire
burning
in
your
heart
It’
s
character
that
holds
the
line
When
the
stars
refuse
to
align
Humility
keeps
you
ready
to
learn
Waiting
for
the
lessons
that
you
gotta
earn
Hope
keeps
your
eyes
on
the
rising
sun
Even
when
the
race
has
just
begun
Yeah,
character
is
the
solid
ground
Where
the
blessing
of
the
truth
is
found
Faith
keeps
you
anchored
in
the
gale
When
the
winds
of
testing
start
to
wail
Don't
break
the
covenant
when
you’
re
put
to
the
test
Trust
that
the
struggle
is
only
for
the
best
And
discernment
is
the
wisdom
that
you
need
To
recognize
the
heart
in
a
stranger’
s
deed
Unlikely
packages,
blessings
in
disguise
If
you’
ve
got
the
spirit
looking
through
your
eyes (
Soaring
fiddle
and
steel
guitar
melody)
Without
the
humble
way,
you’
re
bound
to
stray
Walking
in
the
dark,
losing
your
own
way
But
character
is
the
compass
in
your
soul
Making
the
broken
spirit
finally
whole
It
ain't
the
charisma
that’
ll
pull
you
through
It’
s
the
work
that
the
spirit
does
inside
of
you
It’
s
character
that
holds
the
line
When
the
stars
refuse
to
align
Humility
keeps
you
ready
to
learn
Waiting
for
the
lessons
that
you
gotta
earn
Hope
keeps
your
eyes
on
the
rising
sun
Even
when
the
race
has
just
begun
Yeah,
character
is
the
solid
ground
Where
the
blessing
of
the
truth
is
found
Keep
it
humble,
keep
it
true
Let
the
light
shine
out
through
you
Yeah,
character
is
the
key
To
who
you’
re
really
meant
to
be (
Fade

with
steady
acoustic
rhythm)
