Lyrics
WALKING IN THE DIRECTION
words and music by Peter Kozlowski
Some brought spice and honey, some brought only fear.
Most had little of money, or the finer things to wear.
No one seemed to care.
Mothers brought dying children, and dying men brought tears.
People brought the questions of endless aching years.
And every kind of people brought their troubles and their cares.
Some came from a distance; some came to believe.
Why they came at all, and how they came to live
No one seems to know.
Jesus gave them nothing but the simple words he had,
A different kind of water, and a different kind of bread.
From far and near the people came to hear the words he said.
Walking in the direction of life.
Walking in the direction of light and life.
Walking, walking, walking in the direction of life,
Walking in the direction of life,
Walking in the direction of life, and of light.
Some of us are angry, some of us are cold.
We've heard all the answers to save a burning world.
No one thinks they'll hold.
Not exactly rich folks, we don't have lots to bring.
But work at least together, and our music prays like rain.
And a world of wandering people will want to hear the song we sing.
Walking in the direction of life.
Walking in the direction of light and life.
Walking, walking, walking in the direction of life,
Walking in the direction of life,
Walking in the direction of life, and of light.
