Stop, breathe, let go of everything You think you need, and Slow down, look around There’s apparently not a remedy In a world of fading flowers We all end in the ground I could run after the wind forever But it only lets me down Lead me higher Lead me higher Lift my eyes up To the light where I can see all the pain coming to an end It’s gonna end Oh, no, nothing on earth can bring security, so Be still, your waiting will produce your life in me Like a desert stream I don’t want to love or trust in money Oh, let my soul be found In the hope for a better country that will never let me down Lead me higher Lead me higher Lift my eyes up To the light where I can see all the pain coming to an end Lead me higher Into the fire Burn away all other desires And let my heart beat again Let my heart beat, let my eyes see all that’s unseen Your mercy in between I want to live every day of my life And though I grow old, don’t let me grow cold Let me lose my love for all that isn’t you And as this world fades, teach me to lift my eyes Lead me higher Lead me higher Lift my eyes up To the light where I can see all this pain coming to an end Lead me higher Into the fire Burn away all other desires And let my heart beat again
