Journey

Song titled 'Journey', sung by Angela Zhang for Mandarin series 'Dolphin Bay', probably the one and only Asian song I very like to hear more than once. I never watch the series, frankly, so I never know what kind of story it is.

For me, this song is like pouring my heart out, a regret and a pray, ask God to cure my painful feelings and to release me from my own burden.

It's a long, long journey
Till I know where I'm supposed to be
It's a long, long journey
And I don't know if I can believe
When shadows fall and block my eyes
I am lost and know that I must hide
It's a long, long journey
Till I find my way home to You

Many days I've spent
Drifting on through empty shores
Wondering what's my purpose
Wondering how to make me strong

I know I will falter, I know I will cry
I know You'll be standing by my side
It's a long, long journey
And I need to be close to You

Sometimes it feels no one understands
I don't even know why I do the things I do
When pride builds me up till I can't see my soul
Will You break down these walls and pull me through?

'Cause it's a long, long journey
Till I feel that I am worth the price
You paid for me on Calvary
Beneath those stormy skies

When satan mocks and friends turn to foes
It feels like everything is out to make me lose control
'Cause it's a long, long journey
Till I find my way home to You


Isn't He great when He understands me while no one can?; when He answers, consoles me and wipes my tears when no one can?; when He forgives me for things I don't even know why I do?; for His staying when I am left behind all alone; for He never late in helping. And for thousands things and blessings I receive.

Though it's very painful, He promises me the best things in my life, and He will standing by my side during my journey. This is how He works in building me. Praise The Lord.

God bless you.
