Hey CGLP'rs,
This is one of my favorite songs and while I am not a religious person this song seems to me to be written about God or maybe Jesus. The last two verses are specifically inspiring to me (Shoot, I am spiritual!) and have brought me to tears on several occasions.
I have had a particularly good day and I felt like passing some of it along and the idea to share this song with you came to mind. Divine inspiration?!
Enjoy. :-)

I've got nothing on my mind, nothing to remember
Nothing to forget, I've got nothing to regret
But I'm all tied up on the inside
No one knows quite what I've got
And I know that on the outside
What I used to be, I'm not anymore
You know I've heard about people like me
But I never made the connection
They walk one road to set them free
And find they've gone the wrong direction
But there's no need for turning back
'Cause all roads lead to where I stand
And I believe I'll walk them all
No matter what I may have planned
Can you remember who I was? Can you still feel it?
Can you find my pain? Can you heal it?
Then lay your hands upon me now
And cast this darkness from my soul
You alone can light my way
You alone can make me whole once again
We've walked both sides of every street
Through all kinds of windy weather
But that was never our defeat
As long as we could walk together
So there's no need for turning back
'Cause all roads lead to where we stand
And I believe we'll walk them all
No matter what we may have planned
