Lyrics
Down the road there's a light that shines, that guides my weary soul / down the road theres a fire that burns, that warms my tired bones / down the road theres a whisper that shouts, that calms my fears unknown / down the road there's a hand that reaches out for me alone /....and if I take one more step I'll be one step nearer to my promised land and I cannot imagine anything dearer than you there with me hand in hand....down the road there's a shoulder thats big to carry my heavy load / down the road there's a place of peace that wants to be called my home / down the road there's a devil thats gone because I could not be sold / down the road there's a woman who waits who says that she loves me so......and if I put one foot in front of the other I shall soon arrive and I cannot imagine myself with any other but you for the rest of my life......down the road there's an open door to shelter me from the cold / down the road the day will come when I know as I am known / down the road there's a better day waiting to unfold / down the road I will finally get that perfect heart of gold.....and I can see up ahead a new day dawning as I pick up my pace and I hear the sound of a sweet voice calling me to that higher place
