Story behind the song
She is a four year old girl with cancer. I've never met her, and I don't know her family ... but our church had an incredible fund raiser for her yesterday, raising over $2400. This song is dedicated to Emily and her family, and is a reminder to myself of how sad it is when the innocent suffer, and the reality of Jesus Christ's suffering for me.
Lyrics
No Easy Road
============
Verse I
It was a cold reminder when we got the news that day
I couldn't tell you how much we cried
They said the cancer ... well it did not go away
They said there's not much left to try
Pre-Chorus
It took all of her will to swallow down that pill
Holding On, Just holding on
And with a warm embrace, I said into her face
Hold on. Just hold on strong
Chorus
There ain't no easy way
There ain't no easy road
All we could do was pray
Oh my Lord please hold on to her soul
There ain't no easy road
Verse II
Just like that evening when my Lord he went pray
With tears of blood he would cry
If it's your will God take the cross away
But for your glory I will die
Pre-Chorus (II)
It took all of his will to drag it up that hill
Holding On, Just holding on
And with all of God's grace he finished up the race
Holding on. Just holding on strong
Chorus (II)
There ain't no easy way
There ain't no easy road
I could still hear him say
God into your arms take my soul
There ain't no easy way
There ain't no easy road
All we could do is pray
Oh my Lord please hold on to her soul
There ain't no easy road
