Story Behind the Song
The 9 songs making up "The Story of Thomas" tell fragments of the story of Thomas' jorney from youth to death with a need for control, power, and material possessions brings him to the brink of destruction and he only begins to find his way back by opening himself up to God's call and by following the long road back. He discovers little by little, his own identity and his place in community and in marriage and parenthood. At the end of his days- it is a beautiful day ... and only the beginning!
Lyrics
And I'm walking to the light,
Through the darknes of the night,
Keep me in your arms ,oh Lord,
And I know it'll be alright!
These days I journey through,
Each day brings something new.
Each lesson that I learn,
Teaches me of you.
I learn more of you,
So I learn more of me,
And the more that comes in view,
I'm liking what I see.
And I'm walking to the light,
Through the darknes of the night,
Keep me in your arms ,oh Lord,
And I know it'll be alright!
This picture I restore,
From broken pieces on the floor.
Each piece that I discover,
Makes me want the next on more.
This image of my life,
Is a mirror to my soul,
Keep me in Your arms, oh Lord,
Your LOVE will make me Whole.
And I'm walking to the light,
Through the darknes of the night,
Keep me in your arms ,oh Lord,
And I know it'll be alright!
And I know it'll be alright!
