Lyrics

At the End of the road Yves Stilmant ©2025
[Verse 1]
He was born in a one-horse town
Worked the fields, never let life drag him down
Raised his kids on a calloused hand
Built a life the best he can
Lost his love in '85
But he held on, stayed alive
Kept on walkin' through the rain
Never one to curse the pain
[Pre-Chorus]
People said he should've broke
But he just smiled and said, "That's hope"
[Chorus]
There's a light at the end of the road
After every heavy load
If you keep on standin' tall
You'll rise every time you fall
It don't come fast, it don't come free
But grace will find you patiently
There's a light, yeah, there's a light
At the end of the road
[Verse 2]
Watched the world go and change its face
Friends moved on, new dreams took place
Still he'd sit on that old porch swing
Thankin' God for everything
He gave more than he ever got
But bitterness he never caught
Told the kids, "You fight with heart,
Even when the whole world's dark"
[Pre-Chorus]
He could've quit a thousand times
But he kept on climbin' that old climb
[Chorus]
There's a light at the end of the road
After every heavy load
If you keep on standin' tall
You'll rise every time you fall
It don't come fast, it don't come free
But grace will find you patiently
There's a light, yeah, there's a light
At the end of the road
[Bridge]
And on his final day, he saw
All the love that he'd once lost
Smilin' faces, open arms
He said, "I made it through the storm"
[Final Chorus]
There's a light at the end of the road
After every heavy load
If you keep on standin' tall
You'll rise every time you fall
It don't come fast, it don't come free
But grace will find you patiently
There's a light, yeah, there's a light
At the end of the road
