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 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 '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 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 yeah There's a road (there's a road), we must travel (we must travel)
There's a promise (there is a promise), we must make (that we must make)
But the riches (oh, but the riches) will be plenty (riches will be plenty, yeah)
Worth the risk (worth the risk) and chances we take
There's a dream in the future, there's a struggle that we have yet to win (we have yet to win) Use that pride (pride) in our hearts (in our hearts)
To lift us up, to tomorrow
'Cause just to sit still would be a sin (I know it, I know it
I know where I'm going) Lord knows I know
Where I've been Oh, when we win
I'll give thanks to my God
'Cause I know where I've been
