From the recording 6.1.4
Taking Steps is a song about living one’s life through spiritual principles one day at a time in the recovery from alcohol and drug dependancy.
Lyrics
Verse 1
Often when I listen to the rain, washes my fears away
Cleansing my mind of all the pain
Sometimes while I listen to the wind, It’s soft whispers begin,
Let’s me know I’m free to choose, the path I take, what steps to use
Chorus
Now I’m headed towards a new horizon
Leaving behind the fears
that kept me down
Life is what we make of it, long as we keep taking steps
And trusting in our hearts
Verse 2
Sometimes when I look into the past, To help remind myself,
Where I could be once again, If lost, never to be found
Often I project of what I see, And stumble upon myself
Reminding me I must remain in the now, Or I will soon be lost
Chorus
Now I’m headed towards a new horizon
Leaving behind the fears that kept me down
Life is what we make of it, long as we keep taking steps
And trusting in our hearts
Bridge
Take these chains away, set me free so I may walk
Take this mindless strain, let me go so I may talk
Take these chains away,
Break these chains away from me
Chorus
Now I’m headed towards a new horizon
Leaving behind the fears that kept me down
Life is what we make of it, long as we keep taking steps
And trusting in our hearts
