Mile marker 247, heading west at dawn
+
Radio preacher telling me I'm not alone
+
Got my whole life packed in this old Chevrolet
+
And a pocket full of prayers for the road today
+
Dashboard compass spinning like my restless heart
+
GPS can't tell me where my new life starts
+
Coffee getting cold in the cup holder
+
But my faith's getting stronger as I'm getting older
+
Send up interstate prayers to the God above
+
Keep me safe while I'm searching for what I love
+
Every mile's a step of faith I'm taking
+
Interstate prayers while my heart is breaking
+
On this highway to anywhere
+
Interstate prayers rising in the air
+
Billboards promise everything that I might need
+
But all I really want is a chance to plant a seed
+
Of something real in concrete and steel
+
Something true that I can actually feel
+
Truck stop conversations with the road-worn souls
+
Everyone's got somewhere that they need to go
+
We're all running from something or running to
+
Interstate pilgrims searching for something true
+
Send up interstate prayers to the God above
+
Keep me safe while I'm searching for what I love
+
Every mile's a step of faith I'm taking
+
Interstate prayers while my heart is breaking
+
On this highway to anywhere
+
Interstate prayers rising in the air
+
When the sun sets and the road gets dark
+
And I can't tell where I am by the highway marks
+
I'll keep driving with my hands on the wheel
+
And my heart on something I know is real
+
These white lines are my rosary beads
+
Every mile marker fills my needs
+
For direction, for connection, for hope
+
Send up interstate prayers to the God above
+
Keep me safe while I'm searching for what I love
+
Every mile's a step of faith I'm taking
+
Interstate prayers while my heart is breaking
+
On this highway to anywhere
+
Interstate prayers rising in the air
+
Yeah, interstate prayers, somebody's listening there
+
Mile marker 500, still heading west
+
Interstate prayers putting faith to the test
+
