Days Gone By Lyrics by Pete Carlson

Off the Beaten Path

0

When I think back on days gone by
I can't help but hang my head
Ashamed of the way I treated You
Lord, help me somehow to forget
Imbedded so deep in my memory
That sometimes can hold me fast
I've known all the ways they can tie me down
But prison days are days in the past
'Cause You provided for my release
From all that's gone before
Freed me from my guilty past
And led me through that door
And now I sing of days gone by no longer
I see You've wiped my sins far from Your mind
And I will find my full assurance
Hidden in Your face
'Cause You have freed me up from yesterdays
I wonder if others have sown the seeds
They now wish they never had
Or are they still locked in a darkened past
Not freed from its cripplin' grasps
Well, I thank You, dear Lord for lifting me
(Ooh, lifting me)
Out of my former ways
And placing my feet on a surer ground
So I can see through that haze
'Cause You provided for my release
From all that's gone before
Freed me from my guilty past
And led me through that door
And now I sing of days gone by no longer
I see You've wiped my sins far from Your mind
And I will find my full assurance
Hidden in Your face
'Cause You have freed me up
You have freed me up from yesterdays
