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

...
