You are the Lord of the road -- of the life of the truth and the light
Lead us today, and at the same time, be for us the way.
Lord that we may see -- Lord that we may hear.
Lord that we may love -- Lord that we may understand.
Lord that we may pardon -- Lord that we may console.
You are the Lord of the road -- of the life of the truth and the light
Lead us today, and at the same time, be for us the way.
Lord that we may laugh -- Lord that we may cry.
Lord that we may be FREE -- Lord that we may be in solidarity
With your poor ones now.
You are the Lord of the road -- of the life of the truth and the light
Lead us today, and at the same time, be for us the way.
