Where to from here, if not with you

My past has kept me where I am

Now is the time to


Give me direction (to move on)

Shine your light upon me

I know the time has come for me

Give me the strength (to move on)


Where to from here, if not with you

My past has kept me where I am

Now is the time to


Give me direction (to move on)

Shine your light upon me

I know the time has come for me

Give me the strength (to move on)

Eloi Eloi, lama sabachthani

Give me direction (to move on)

I know the time has come for me

Give me the strength to move on


Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani

Shine your light upon me

I know the time has come for me

Give me the strength to move on

Give me direction to move on

Give me the strength to move on

Give me direction to move on


I know the time has come for me

Give me the strength to move on
