A good "cover" of a well known and much loved Christian classic. I am glad that she sings, true to the original, "LIKE northern stars" and not "JUST northern stars" which is a common version and in my opinion belittles those very stars which represent the loves of our life, which are a pale reflection, but a reflection nevertheless, of divine love.
I set out on a narrow way many years ago Hoping I would find true love along the broken road But I got lost a time or two Wiped my brow and kept pushing through I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you That every long lost dream led me to where you are Others who broke my heart, they were like Northern stars Pointing me on my way into your loving arms This much I know is true That God blessed the broken road That led me straight to you Yes, He did I think about the years I spent just passin' through I'd like to have the time I lost and give it back to you But you just smile and take my hand You've been there, you understand It's all part of a grander plan that is coming true Every long lost dream led me to where you are Others who broke my heart, they were like Northern stars Pointing me on my way into your loving arms This much I know is true That God blessed the broken road That led me straight to you Yeah And now I'm just a-rollin' home Into my lover's arms This much I know is true That God blessed the broken road That led me straight to you That God blessed the broken road That led me straight to you Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, mm, mm
