On My Way Heard the greatest true story ever told A child was born and rose as told Found the meaning of song in love me tender And discovered a great voice did surrender Watched in awe another step for mankind In a faraway field glowing celebrating the mind Read of a hunger striker liberate 300 million A one man battle across salt lakes, a legend Told of a genius and the atom bomb As the vast expanse of relativity made a tomb Cried trying to understand the gas chamber And the evil of the greatest mass murderer Amidst the struggles from failed ideologies Truth revealed of leaders from long marches Fallen heroes, battered children, shreaded dignity Amongst slums a tender hand patched up the misery Still along the way I am travelling to no avail And wonder how wrecklessness and sorrow will travel Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love |
