(Dwight Yoakam)
|
|
If deep in the night
|
You hear a voice calling
|
lost and alone
|
Barely able to speak
|
|
With each weary step
|
Through cold shadow they stumble
|
Blindly along
|
Frail, hopeless and weak
|
|
Chorus:
|
Won't you set out a traveler's lantern
|
Just a small light that they might see
|
To guide them back home before they wander
|
Into the dark billows that crash on the sea
|
|
At dawn's rise you may find
|
The footprints of angels
|
Brought to fellowship there
|
By your mercy lamp's flame
|
|
Walking beside
|
The weary soul life's forgotten
|
Bringing comfort and love
|
And gently leading their way
|
|
Chorus:
|
Won't you set out a traveler's lantern
|
Just a small light that they might see
|
To guide them back home before they wander
|
Into the dark billows that crash on the sea
