Wait for the Light to Shine

(Fred Rose)



When the road is rocky and you've got a heavy load

Wait for the light to shine

If you find your friendless on that weary lonesome road

Wait for the light to shine.



Wait for the light to shine

Wait for the light to shine

Pull yourself together and keep looking for the sign

Wait for the light to shine.



--- Instrumental ---



Don't forget your brother as you travel through the land

Wait for the light to shine

He may be in trouble and may need a helping hand

Wait for the light to shine.



Wait for the light to shine

Wait for the light to shine

Never give up hope or cast your pearls and pour this wine

Wait for the light to shine.



--- Instrumental ---



Now if your life is empty and you're on your last go round

Wait for the light to shine

And if you hear the chime bells on that highway you have found

Wait for the light to shine.



Wait for the light to shine

Wait for the light to shine

Now when your friends forsake you and you haven't got a dime

Wait for the light to shine.



--- Instrumental ---



Don't let trouble fool you and your sin will all be gone

Wait for the light to shine

Don't forget it's darkest just before the break of dawn

Wait for the light to shine.



Wait for the light to shine

Oh, wait for the light to shine

Keep these words before you as you walk that narrow line

Wait for the light to shine.



Wait for the light to shine

Oh, wait for the light to shine

Just keep these words before you as you walk that narrow line

And wait for the light to shine.



Wait for the light to shine...
