Providence

Coles Whalen

Lift me up lead me there
Won't you help me along the way
Fill my head guide my eyes
Won't you show me a brighter day

I don't mean to doubt but I'm left with this aching in my head
It's the life I've lead that's what the good man said
I don't need forgiveness or absolution I don't need to grieve
I'm not asking to be saved I just want something to believe in

Providence shine a light on me
Cause I'm tired of walking blind tired of all my hard times
Providence be a friend to me
I don't want to walk alone anymore

Day by day, night after night
I have asked for a way to know
I'm not scared I'm not afraid anymore
My bags are packed and I am ready to go

I would leave tomorrow I would leave tonight
I know the time is right I feel a change inside
But I can't go alone I don't even know where to begin
I need someone to light my doorway I need someone to let me in

Providence shine a light on me
Cause I'm tired of walking blind tired of all my hard times
Providence be a friend to me
I don't want to walk alone anymore
