What a classic. And what a timeless example of mankind’s thirst for meaning in life.
Check out the lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Every night I say a prayer In the hopes that there’s a Heaven;
And everyday I’m more confused As the saints turn into sinners.
[Pre-Chorus]
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.
[Chorus]
Show me the way, show me the way; Take me tonight to the river
And wash my illusions away; Please show me the way.
[Verse 2]
And as I slowly drift to sleep For a moment dreams are sacred;
I close my eyes and know there’s peace In a world so filled with hatred.
[Pre-Chorus]
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.
[Chorus]
Jesus said, “I am the Way, the Truth and the Life; no one comes to the Father except by me.”
Solus Christus, Nick
