"Be My Guiding Light" lyrics

"Be My Guiding Light"

Be my guiding light tonight
Hope and all its virtues
I won't hurt you in the end
Within your grace is what I'm seeking
You're heaven, speaking through the door
Be my guiding light tonight, faith

Be my guiding light tonight
Hope is moving mountains
Spring water fountains by the score
To the lifeboat that I am clinging
A prisoner swimming to freedom's shore
Tonight, love

I see a beacon
The ancients singing from the shore
And is your neighbour really out to get you?
I hear singing from shore
So be my guiding light tonight, love

Be my guiding light tonight, love
And if I stumble
My king beside me to the end
From desolation the angel hides me
A man becoming after all
So be my guiding light tonight, love

There's a letter for you
From the dawn of time
To the laws of creation
Stamped "no reply"
Until it's taken
If I'm not mistaken
You are the grape
Provides the wine

I can't forget you
I won't regret you in the end
And if I stumble
I came upon you sleeping
You were spinning out
Be my candlelight and wine, peace

Peace upon you
And peace in your neighbourhood
Be my guiding light tonight, love

For the pots are turning
For the tourist trade
They never remember
The artist's name
The words are weary
To the apple's core
Last lambs of the harvest
What's forgiveness for?
