All of my life they said be quiet Be quiet for cryin' out loud Takin' the easy way Isn't an easy way Even a fool when he is silent People will think he's wise Takin' the easy way Isn't an easy way In your footprints this is what I read Tell the children tell them what I said Tell all nations tell them I'm not dead My yoke is easy yes my burden's light My yoke is easy and my burden's light I might be taken by my sadness And still be filled with joy Takin' the easy way Isn't an easy way Hope of the hopeless I have taken To sing my silent song Takin' the easy way Isn't an easy way My heart is bursting with Your words I will tell them tell them what I've heard So the brokenhearted will be cured For there is healing, healing in Your wings Yes there is healing, healing in Your wings So I take You into my weakness I'm weak but You are strong Takin' the easy way Isn't an easy way Learning of You has made me give up Give up all that I am Takin' the easy way Isn't an easy way Transformation in every word Relocation hell to heavenward Education says that you're absurd Takin' the narrow road isn't an easy way Takin' the narrow road isn't an easy way Takin' the easy way isn't an easy way
