Lord we take this journey,
To find a promised land.
Lord we take this journey,
To find a promised land.
And we believe in your power,
We believe in your power,
We believe in your power.
But the end is so close, so close at hand...
Lord, these men are hungry,
There just hasn't been enough,
And the journey's been so rough,
And lord these men are hurting,
They implore me to go back as the planks beneath them crack.
And I know it's my responsibility,
But I'm starving too and I hurt, I do,
And I'm lost.
I believe in my responsibility,
But I need to see that the fruits will be worth the cost.
So I'm begging you lord you gotta stop,
Take a look at your children who believe in this promised land,
Have mercy lord, stop their suffering and their woe,
Woah, woah,
Stop, shine your light on these children who have faith in your guiding hand,
I'm just begging you lord, cos there's no place else to go,
I am unworthy lord.
Lord, this ship is crowded,
And the men are tired and worn,
But another baby's born.
And Lord this ship is broken,
And the sails are ripped and old,
But the winds are rough and cold.
And I know it's my responsibility,
When I ride the sea these men turn to me for a sign.
I believe in my responsibility,
But I can't be sure when it's time for your light to shine.
So I'm begging you Lord to make it stop,
Take a look at your children who believe in this promised land,
Have mercy Lord,
Give a sign to let us know,
Woah woah,
Stop shine your light on these children who have faith in your guiding hand,
I'm just begging you Lord cos there's no place else to go...
Lord, save this child, I am not strong enough,
I am not strong enough.
Lord, save my soul, I am unworthy.
Lord, take my hand, I am not strong enough,
I am not strong enough.
Lord, take my heart, I am unworthy.
Lord, give me hope, I am not strong enough,
I am not strong enough.
Lord, give me life, I am unworthy.
I am unworthy.
Stop, take a look at the children at the children who believe in the promised land,
You gotta, have mercy Lord, have mercy Lord,
Give us strength so that we can grow.
Stop shine your light on the children who have faith in divine command.
I'm just begging you Lord,
I'm just begging you Lord,
I know I am unworthy,
But there's no place else to go.
A new world calls across the ocean.
A new world calls the ocean,
A new world calls across the sky.
