Verse 1
Shoulder to the wheel,
For someone else's selfish gain.
Here there is no choosing, working the clay.
Wearing their anger
Like a ball and chain.
Fire in the field,
Underneath the blazing sun.
But soon the sun was faded, freedom was a song.
I heard them singing
When the day was done.
To the holy one...
Chorus
Lead me on, lead me on
To a place where the river runs,
Into your keeping, oh
Lead me on, lead me on
The awaited deliverance,
Comforts the seeking
Lead on.
Verse 2
Waiting for the train,
Labeled with a golden star
Heavy hearted boarding, whispers in the dark
Where are we going?
Is it very far?
Bitter cold terrain,
Echoes of a slamming door.
Chambers made for sleeping, forever.
Voices like thunder,
In a mighty war.
Cry out to the Lord...
Chorus
Bridge
Man hurts man
Time and time, time again.
And we drown in the wake of our power
Somebody tell me why
...
