The Way Goes On

The wanderers and the pilgrims

Sought to share your precious word

And to travel in your footsteps

Was their purpose and their goal

But the journey lies beyond the heart

In a deeper faith

And the road goes on into the light

As we seek your face

And the way goes on

Across the oceans

Through the deep wood and the desert

And the way goes on

In the seeking

Of my spirit into tomorrow

Alone inside my empty cell

I search for you in the silence

A road to life art thou O Lord

And at journey's end lies my dwelling

But the journey lies beyond the heart

In a deeper faith

And the road goes on into the light

As we seek your face

And the way goes on

Across the oceans

Through the deep wood and the desert

And the way goes on

In the seeking

Of my spirit into tomorrow
