Light A Way

Down by a lake of Mississippi

A boy was born poor and abandoned

And as he walk you could hear him yearning

For a home and he prays

And by the fields he sang for rising

All of his faith and memorizing

All of the songs his mother

Learned from the Lord himself

Heaven light a way for a fallen

Let me ease the pain from my mother

But he feels the deception in his head

Another day was born and rising

And on the stool the boy was trying

To earn a coin for his mother and hoping

That freedom will lead her away

"Dear little friend, I've heard your story

Please take my hand and I'll promise

We'll find a way and we'll be fighting

For your mother and her wings"

Heaven light a way for a fallen

Let me ease the pain from my mother

But he feels the deception in his head

Heaven light a way for another

Let me ease the pain for a fallen

We are on our way, so much stronger

Heaven light the way for another

And he feels no deception in his head
