Standing Where the Roads Divide

Description from YT


Scripture Matthew 13:33

33 He told them still another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed into about sixty pounds[a] of flour until it worked all through the dough.”


Lyrics

Verse 1
Well I woke up this mornin’,
With my heart feelin’ small and thin,
But a little truth the Lord whispered,
Said, “Son, that’s how the rising begins.”

Refrain
Just a touch of His mercy,
Works its way through my soul,
Like a woman kneadin’ that dough,
Till the whole batch starts to grow.

Verse 2
You may feel buried in shadows,
Like your strength done slipped away,
But that kingdom seed keeps workin’,
Quiet in the night and day.

Refrain
Just a touch of His mercy,
Works its way through my soul,
Like a woman kneadin’ that dough,
Till the whole batch starts to grow.

Verse 3
I been walkin’ through trouble,
Carryin’ weight I can’t explain,
But that holy yeast keeps risin’,
Liftin’ me above the pain.

Refrain (final)
Just a touch of His mercy,
Works its way through my soul,
Like a woman kneadin’ that dough,
Till the whole world starts to grow.

Standing Where the Roads Divide is a classic 12-bar gospel blues inspired by the timeless crossroads image — a moment of choice, prayer, and direction. This version follows a traditional Delta blues structure with a raw, stripped-down feel: slide guitar, steady stomp, and a single voice telling the story.


Lyrics

I’m standin’ at the crossroads, don’t know which way to go,
I’m standin’ at the crossroads, don’t know which way to go,
I said, “Lord, guide my footsteps,
Don’t leave me walkin’ slow.”

The night is fallin’ quiet, shadows gather round,
The night is fallin’ quiet, shadows gather round,
I’m waitin’ for Your whisper
To lift me off this ground.

Three roads in the darkness, each one pullin’ wide,
Three roads in the darkness, each one pullin’ wide,
I’m prayin’ for Your mercy,
Where the roads divide.
