I Know Where I've Been

There's a light
In the darkness
Though the night
Is black as my skin

There's a light
Burning bright
Showing me the way, hmm
But I know where I've been

There's a cry
In the distance
It's a voice
That comes from deep within
There's a cry
Asking why
I pray the answer's up ahead, yeah
'Cause I know where I've been

There's a road
We've been travelin'
Lost so many on the way
But the riches
Will be plenty
Worth the price, the price we
Had to pay

There's a dream
In the future
There's a struggle
That we have yet to win
And there's pride
In my heart
'Cause I know where I'm going
Yes I do
And I know where I've been, no no

There's a road
We must travel and
There is a promise
Oh we must make
Oh but the riches
Riches will be plenty, yeah
Worth the risk
And chances that we take
There's a dream
In the future
There's a struggle

That we have yet to win
Use the pride
In your heart
To lift us up
Until tomorrow

'Cause just to sit still
Would be a sin

Oh Lord
I know

Where i've been
I'll give thanks to my God

'Cause I know
Where i've
Been
