Amazing Grace...

I woke up today and the world felt heavy

So I grabbed my keys and I went for a drive

Followed some county road wherever it led me

Passed a fellow on the porch and a Texaco sign

Crossed the bridge running over a creek

Miles of fields far as I could see

And there wasn't no steeple, wasn't no people, wasn't no pews

But right there at a little past two...

 

I went to church in a Chevy on a two-lane on a side of the road

Sun coming up cutting through the live oaks

Wind through the windows like a whisper on a breeze

Out there in the quiet heard him talking to me

Amazing grace came flooding through the windshield

Felt some broken parts of me start to heal

My lost getting found, no one else around

Middle of nowhere dirt

I went to church in a Chevy

 

So I soaked it up and lost track of time

Started laying all my worries down

And there wasn't no preacher, wasn't no choir, wasn't no words

But it was the best sermon I've ever heard

 

And I thought a little

And I left there, and I changed a little...

 

I went to church in a Chevy
