Lyrics:

Suora tie = The Straight Road

You opened my eyes to see the truth
I saw the lies that this world is offering
Still they blind me over and over
Until I remember, I can turn my eyes to the Victor
Only You are the life, the rock that endures
My peace and my strength
The atoner of my sins
To You I give my praise, to You I surrender
I want to live for You, not for myself anymore
You Jesus, are the straight road that I can't walk on without fear
I don't need to listen to the surrounding voices
I just go on in Your strength redeemed by Your grace
Only You are the life...

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and do not rely on your own insight.
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
and He will make straight Your paths."
(Proverbs 3:5-6)

Only You are the life, the rock that endures forever...
