Show Me the Way

Show me the way...cause I've been so lost
Lost in lies and never counting the cost
In clouds of confusion I fall down in the fog
Drawn into diversions that take me way off course
Divided and double minded I'm spinning in cyclones in a homicidal haze
I can't wait another hour
Lord...show me the way

Show me the way...inside this crazed calamity
I drown in dark disturbing waters
I long to swim in salvation springs
I'm running till I'm ragged
Still I run those rugged roads
I can't stop or slow my pace
Will my heart and head explode?
Now I'm doing what I'm told as I watch and wait for peace
I can't wait another minute
Lord...show me the way

Show me the way...as the world it comes against me
Burning bridges that I built
Striking matches made of madness
Now my spirit's deep in sadness and my soul you have to save
I can't wait another second
Lord...show me the way

Now the sun it starts to shine
Dark clouds they disappear
My fears that turned to fire are put out by Heavens tears
And the hate that turned to heat has turned to warmth and righteous rays
I thank you Lord 4ever...keep showing me the way
