[Verse 1: Mark Hall]
I don't wanna write this
I don't wanna write this withered song
I don't wanna walk this
Oh, I don't wanna walk this desert road

[Pre-Chorus]
I know there's a bigger picture
I know there's a great unknown
But I don't want to write this story
I don't want to be the one

[Chorus]
On this desert road
On this desert road

[Verse 2: Natalie Grant]
I don't want to ask You
But could there be another way?
Is this the only path through
Rubble and dust and broken clay

[Pre-Chorus: Mark Hall, Natalie Grant, Both]
I'm trying to still believe you
That I'll never walk alone (ooh)
Maybe only time reveals You
When there's so many miles to go
[Chorus: Both]
On this dеsert road
On this desert road

[Verse 3: Mark Hall]
In this dry and wеary land
The darkest days I've ever known
Father, lead me by Your hand
On this desert road

[Verse 4: Mark Hall, Natalie Grant, Both]
As I'm breathing in this dust
I am singing out Your name (singing out Your name)
And I surrender and I trust
On this desert road

[Verse 5: Mark Hall, Natalie Grant, Both]
As I lift my head I see
So many desperate souls in need
I walk with them as You walk with me
On this desert road, oh
On this desert road, oh
On this desert road (on this desert road), oh
On this desert road
On this desert road
