Show Me The Way

Every night I say a prayer
In the hopes that there's a heaven
And every day I'm more confused
As the saints turn into sinners
All the heroes and legends
I knew as a child
Have fallen to idols of clay
And I feel this empty place inside
So afraid that I've lost my faith

Show me the way
Show me the way
Take me tonight to the river
And wash my illusions away
And please show me the way

As I slowly drift to sleep
For a moment dreams are sacred
I close my eyes and know there's peace
In a world so filled with hatred
Then I wake up each morning
And turn on the news
To find that we've so far to go
And I keep on hoping for a sign
So afraid that I just won't know

Show me the way
Show me the way
Bring me tonight to the mountain
And take my confusion away
And please show me the way

And if I see your light
Should I believe
Tell me how will I know
Oh Lord, I've lost my way

And please show me the way
Show me the way
Take me tonight to the river
And wash my illusions away
And please show me the way
Show me the way
Give me the strength and the courage
To believe that I'll get there someday
And please show me the way

Every night I say a prayer
In the hopes that there's a heaven
