Glenn Kaiser - One More Step lyrics

Today I rose on our anniversary Readied myself for the day Gave thanks for twenty-six years with you My faithful, my beautiful, and brave Considered so many we have known Wondering where they might be now Whose eyes grew dim, whose hearts decreased Withdrew their hands from the plow Yet I know no other Saviour He has given me no other call I can serve no other Master And I thank God you walk with me still One more step on the road to glory One more day on the path One more mile in the grip of mercy In the only love that lasts I place my hand on the Book of fools I pledge my life to its truth Wendi, many are called; few are chosen Let two of them be me an' you We've spent time in the colosseum Among lions of another kind Those who forgive have learned to live And the blind stumble the blind You and I know the secret That no secrets exist at all Where the love in the nails secures release From the Judas who bids us, "Fall It's just one more step on the road to glory One more day on the narrow path One more mile in His grace and mercy In the only love that lasts One more step on the road to glory One more day on the path One more chapter in the story Of the only love that lasts There's a little more grey than yesterday I hope to wear it well There are two young ladies an' two prodigals Worth every tear that fell And a family on Wilson Avenue That grows in knowledge and in grace There are names in a book before the throne I am satisfied they won't be erased And if I had a second chance To choose all over again I'd take Jesus and you in a second And I'll walk with you both 'til the end
