SHINING THROUGH
Somebody wadin’ in the water
Lookin’ out for the Promised Land
Tryin’ to hold his feet to the fire
Tryin’ to walk like a decent man
Devil’s tryin’ to make you do it
Got you on the run
Tryin’ to play by all the rules
But that just ain’t no fun
How you gonna chase that lonely
Where you goin’ in the middle of the night
Wish you had someone to hold you
Lookin’ out for the mornin’ light
Devil casts a giant shadow
And I know it’s true
Quiet life of desperation
That ain’t gonna do
CHORUS:
I’ve been to the crossroads and I’m here to say
I don’t always walk the straight and narrow way
When I see the shadows in the midnight blue
I know it’s dark before the dawn
When the light comes
Light comes shinin’ through
Somebody wadin’ in the water
Lookin’ out for the Promised Land
Tryin’ to hold his feet to the fire
Tryin’ to walk like a decent man
Devil casts a giant shadow
And I know it’s true
Quiet life of desperation
That ain’t gonna do
CHORUS
