Lead Me On

I'm convinced my eyelids are more dense than black holes Oh Hercules! Oh Samson! Summon your might that I might see once again through the dark and despair of this world I'm living in Another morning another forecast of foggy skies with no clear vision in sight Oh Lord! Oh Lord! Is there life for the blind? Does the straight and narrow have a rumble strip? Surely your mud can heal the pain of my amaurosis Yet if not -- bind your yoke upon my shoulders Hook your staff around my leg and lead me through this dogged penumbra
