Show the Way

February 9th, 2008 by Scott

I wanted to share with y’all this song that over the years has probably been my favorite of all time.
Its called Show the Way by David Wilcox

Click HERE to listen to or buy this song (DRM free) at Amazon MP3.

You say you see no hope, you say you see no reason
We should dream that the world would ever change
You’re saying love is foolish to believe
‘Cause there’ll always be some crazy with an Army or a Knife
To wake you from your day dream, put the fear back in your life…

Look, if someone wrote a play just to glorify
What’s stronger than hate, would they not arrange the stage
To look as if the hero came too late he’s almost in defeat
It’s looking like the Evil side will win, so on the Edge
Of every seat, from the moment that the whole thing begins
It is…

Chorus:
Love who makes the mortar
And it’s love who stacked these stones
And it’s love who made the stage here
Although it looks like we’re alone
In this scene set in shadows
Like the night is here to stay
There is evil cast around us
But it’s love that wrote the play…
For in this darkness love can show the way

So now the stage is set. Feel you own heart beating
In your chest. This life’s not over yet.
so we get up on our feet and do our best. We play against the
Fear. We play against the reasons not to try
We’re playing for the tears burning in the happy angel’s eyes
For it’s…

    I love this song. I was introduced to it by Brent Curtis, author of The Sacred Romance, who was a friend of mine when I live in Colorado before he died. I’ve got a couple of Wilcox’s albums.
