Lead me on lyrics
by Amy Grant



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
And freedom was a song
I heard them singing
When the day was done
Singing 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

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 roar
Cry to the lord

[repeat CHORUS]

Man hurts man
Time and time, time again
And we drown in
The wake of our power
Somebody tell me why

[repeat CHORUS 2x]

Lead me on (lead me)
Lead me on (lead me)....

It's your comfort I'm seeking
Lead me on....
