Steven Curtis Chapman - The Great Adventure Lyrics






Saddle up your horses

Started out this morning in the usual way
Chasing thoughts inside my head
I thought I had to do today
Another time around the circle
Try to make it better than the last
I opened up the Bible
And I read about me
Said I'd been a prisoner
And God's Grace had set me free
And somewhere between the pages
It hit me like a lightning bolt
I saw a big frontier in front of me
And I heard somebody say 'Let's go!'

Saddle up your horses
We've got a trail to blaze
Through the wild blue yonder of God's Amazing grace
Let's follow our leader into the Glorious unknown
This is the life like no other whoa whoa
This is The Great Adventure

Yeah....

Come on, get ready for the ride of your life
Gonna leave long faced religion
In a cloud of dust behind
And discover all the new horizons
Just waiting to be explored
This is what we were created for, yeah

Saddle up your horses
We've got a trail to blaze
Through the wild blue yonder of God's Amazing grace
Let's follow our leader into the Glorious unknown
This is the life like no other whoa whoa
This is The Great Adventure

We'll travel on, over mountains so high
We'll go through valleys below
Still through it all we'll find that
This is the greatest journey
That the human heart will ever see
The love of God will take us far
Beyond our wildest dreams
Yeah, oh saddle up your horses
Come on get ready to ride

Saddle up your horses
We've got a trail to blaze
Through the wild blue yonder of God's Amazing grace
Let's follow our leader into the Glorious unknown
This is the life like no other whoa whoa
This is The Great Adventure

    A friend of mine, Ronnie, knowing I was huge SCC fan invited me to come to Nashville and spend a few days with him. Just happened that he was the recording and mix engineer on this album. I got to hang out while he mixed several songs from this project and go to help do some background vocals on "Got 2 B Tru." SCC was so nice and easy to talk to. So glad I got that experience. Was a blast. It pushed me into a career in audio engineering, that I still do today. Thank you Ronnie.

    TO MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN THE LORD JESUS CHRIST,

    WE MUST ENTER HIS REST OF THE FINISHED WORKS OF JESUS CHRIST! WE ARE HIS SERVANTS THAT WE WILL RISE WITH HIM AND WORSHIP THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.
    TO HAVE A FEARLESS SOUL IS THAT YOU MUST CALL UPON CHRIST TO HELP SOLVE PROBLEMS WITH RESTORATION OF RELATIONSHIPS, AND OVERCOMING FEAR, STRESS, AND RENEWAL OF THE MIND, AND SOUL IS TO PRAY EVERY DAY, ENTERING THE REST OF THE FINISHED WORKS OF JESUS CHRIST AND SURRENDER YOUR HEART AND SOUL TO HIM AND ACCEPT JESUS CHRIST AS THEIR SAVIOR.

    WHOEVER SOWS THE SEED BY TITHING TO HIS CHURCH TO SPREAD HIS COVENANT AROUND THE WORLD, AND ACCEPT THE LORD AS THEIR SAVIOR, SHALL BE BLESSED, BAPTIZED AND BROUGHT INTO HEAVEN, AND REJOICE IN THE LORD AND BE GLAD IN IT. THE LORD JESUS CHRIST LOVES HIS CHURCH AND HIS MEMBERS, BECAUSE HIS PRECIOUS BLOOD CONTINUES TO PROTECT US, AND HIS FORGIVENESS OF OUR SINS, AND UPHOLDING US IN HIS VICTORIOUS RIGHT HAND OF HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS. HE ALSO GIVES US AUTHORITY OVER EVERY SPIRIT THAT WE COME IN CONTACT WITH. HE ALSO GAVE US HIS HEALING COVENANT THAT WE HAVE WITH HIM ACCORDING TO HIS PRECIOUS WORD THAT SAYS THAT BY HIS STRIPES WE ARE HEALED. WE MUST KEEP OUR MINDS CENTERED ON HIM, AND CALL UPON HIS PRECIOUS COVENANT OF HIS GRACE THAT HE PUTS WITHIN US TO HAVE KNOWLEDGE WISDOM AND DISCERNMENT. HIS ANNOINTANCE DESTROYS EVERY YOKE. THE LORD IS OUR SHEPHERD AND WE SHALL NOT WANT. JESUS CHRIST IS LORD. KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.

    JESUS CHRIST PLUS NOTHING!

    Senior Pastor Joseph Jorrick

    p.... ....

    Hello friends, this is one of my favourite songs!

  63. M.... S....

    I was a group leader at my church’s cowboy themed vbs when I first heard this

    M.... S....

    Saddle Ridge Ranch?

    M.... S....

    I don’t think so

    M.... S....

    @Ms. Shelly Mac TM Well, then there are two cowboy themed vbs's with this as a 'theme song'.

  64. F.... P....

    I remember when this was like the only album I would listen to all the time because I wasn’t allowed to listen to any secular music. My mom would go through my room when I wasn’t home and throw away all the secular cds I had bought with my hard earned money that I got from my part time job so all I had left was this and a DC Talk album to listen to. Awesome parenting mom!

  65. E.... L....

    Love 💕❤️💋🕊👼🏻👼🏽🕊✝️💒🥰😊

  66. K.... W....

    heard this song in the movie, I Can Only Imagine, and have been hooked to it ever since.

    Wonderful song. Nice harmonies and good message. I've known the song for years but never seen the video until now. It feels so weird to see him so young!

  90. W.... L....

    Takes me back to the early 1990's when my horse was my bicycle. I rode that thing all over the USA! Let's GO!

    Nasty man.

  93. S.... ....

    At my Messianic congregation this past Saturday, we blessed and released Carl and Glenda who were no longer able to make the long drive into the mountains west of Denver because of health challenges. We were so sad to see them go; Carl had been on the worship team (in his 70s!) and was an elder, in cowboy boots and leather vest under his prayer shawl/tallit. After we prayed over them and as they were getting ready to pack up and out, Terry called out from the sound booth, "We have a video!" and ran this one. Even now I'm crying happy tears as I remember Carl taking Glenda into his arms and they swing-danced to this song, and on that note, they rode off into the sunset. I love this congregation!

  94. A.... S....

    Love this song

  95. E.... I....

    Hi, Steven, I want to know why there are some videos which shows certain restriction for my country Panama, thanks!

  96. K.... G....

    I love this song so much you need to pot it on seadt

  97. 2.... ....

    This song brings back so many memories and how exciting life was back then and now I am older but it's still a great ride just slower. Another one that moves is FOR THE SAKE OF THE CALL~

  98. Y.... B....

    I was watching (I can only imagine) I had to pause and listen ..2018
