Can you light my way from your home up above?

Can you show me the way back to the ones I dearly love?

At the end of my journey, when at last my spirit's free

When you're looking down from heaven

won't you light the way for me?

Oh, the road is dark and rocky

as I stumble through the night

I can't see the path before me

though I try with all my might

How I wish that you were here to

help me make it through the day

When you're looking down from heaven

won't you help me find a way?

(Light the way) At last I'm on my way

if you could light the path up for me

(So I can see) If you could shine a light

I'd see the pearly gates by morning

(The way to flee) Help me find a way

so I can set my spirit free

When you're looking down from heaven

won't you light the way for me?

Well, my clothes are awful ragged

and my shoes are thin and worn

And I'm ready to transcend the

place where I was raised and born

It don't bother me at all to think about the day I'll leave

And I'll be upon my way just as long as I can see

Can you light my way from your home up above?

Can you show me the way back to the ones I dearly love?

At the end of my journey, when at last my spirit's free

When you're looking down from heaven

won't you light the way for me?

(Light the way) At last I'm on my way

if you could light the path up for me

(So I can see) If you could shine a light

I'd see the pearly gates by morning

(The way to flee) Help me find a way

so I can set my spirit free

When you're looking down from heaven

won't you light the way for me?

When you're looking down from heaven

won't you light the way for me?
