LYRICS:

Verse 1 (Male)
I'm drivin' past the cotton fields,
Old radio singing how hope feels.
Headed down a gravel lane,
Thinking 'bout that holy name.

Verse 2 (Female)
The porch light's on at neighbor's place,
A quilt line waving like God's grace.
We slow our truck, we bow our heads,
And thank the Lord for what He said.

Chorus (Both)
Backroads to the manger, slow and true,
Where simple hearts return to You.
From dusty lanes to starlit farms,
We find our way into His arms.

Verse 3 (Male)
Barn doors open, children laugh,
A lantern swinging on a post of half.
We sing the old songs, loud and strong,
Remind the lost where we belong.

Verse 4 (Female)
And every mile a memory grows,
Of faith that's deep as river flows.
We bring our stories, gifts and scars,
And kneel beneath the Bethlehem star.

Bridge (Both)
So take the road that leads you home,
You're never lost, you're never alone.
On every backroad, everywhere you roam,
The manger waits to welcome home.

Final Chorus (Both)
Backroads to the manger, slow and true,
Where simple hearts return to You.
From gravel paths to open arms,
We find our hope, we find our calm.

Tag
Backroads home… to the manger's call.
