STYX – Show Me the Way

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
