Lead Me On

Posted on September 29, 2008October 18, 2015 By Doriano No Comments on Lead Me On

Amy Grant has done a ton of great songs, Christian or otherwise. For some reason, “Lead Me On” has always been one my favorites. Michael W. Smith wrote the song, so it’s no wonder why I love it because he’s another favorite of mine.

The music video is well done too. She’s out in the mountains so there’s a great deal of breath-taking views (including the ever gorgeous Amy herself). Wonderful message too about having faith in God and asking Him to lead the way.

Here are two videos of the song. First, the one in the mountains and the second is a live performance of Amy Grant with the composer, Michael W. Smith. Followed by the lyrics

LEAD ME ON

Shoulder to the wheel
For someone elses selfish gain
Here there is no choosing
Working the clay
Wearing their anger like a ball and chain.
Fire in the field
Underneath a blazing sun
But soon the sun was faded
And freedom was a song
I heard them singing when the day was done
Singing to the holy one.
Lead me on
Lead me on
To a place where the river runs
Into your keeping, oh.
Lead me on
Lead me on
The awaited deliverance
Comforts the seeking…lead on.
Waiting for the train
Labelled with a golden star
Heavy hearted boarding
Whispers in the dark
Where are we going–is it very far?
Bitter cold terrain
Echoes of a slamming door
In chambers made for sleeping, forever
Voices like thunder in a mighty roar
Cry to the lord.
Lead me on
Lead me on
To a place where the river runs
Into your keeping, oh.
Lead me on
Lead me on
The awaited deliverance
Comforts the seeking…lead on.
Man hurts man
Time and time, time again
And we drown in the wake of our power
Somebody tell me why.
Lead me on
Lead me on
To a place where the river runs
Into your keeping, oh.
Lead me on
Lead me on
The awaited deliverance
Comforts the seeking…lead on.
Lead me on
Lead me on
To a place where the river runs
Into your keeping, oh.
Lead me on
Lead me on
The awaited deliverance
Comforts the seeking…lead on.
