~ Show Me The Way ~

Every night I say a prayer
In the hopes that there's a heaven
And every day I'm more confused
As the saints turn into sinners
All the heroes and legends I knew
As a child have fallen to idols of clay
And I feel this empty place inside
So afraid that I've lost my faith

Show me the way, show me the way
Take me tonight to the river
And wash my illusions away
Please show me the way

As I slowly drift to sleep
For a moment dreams are sacred
Close my eyes and know there's peace
In a world so filled with hatred
That I wake up each morning
And turn on the news
To find we've so far to go
And I keep on hoping for a sign
So afraid I just won't know

Show me the way, show me the way
Bring me tonight to the mountain
And take my confusion away
And show me the way
And if I see a light, should I believe
Tell me how will I know

~ Instrumental ~

Show me the way, show me the way
Take me tonight to the river
And wash my illusions away
Show me the way, show me the way
Give me the strength and the courage
To believe that I'll get there someday
And please show me the way

Every night I say a prayer
In the hopes that there's a heaven . . .

I received an email from someone which prompted this song.
He said . . .

"I was wondering if perhaps you could find a way to use, "Show Me the Way" by Styx from thelr album, "Styx Greatest hits". I remember during the Gulf War back in the early 90s one local radio station would play thie song every morning on my way to work, it was inspirational. Please check it out."
