I
CLOUD BY DAY AND FIRE BY NIGHT
THE LORD HE LED THEM ON THEIR WAY.
SINGING AND A PRAYING AND A TRUSTING HIS NAME
AS THEY TROD THAT VERY DAY.
ON GOOD MANNA HE DID FEED THEM EVERY SINGLE DAY
SAID DON'T STORE FOR TOMORROW
BUT JOYFULLY FILL YOURSELF TODAY.
II
SO LONG I HAVE STOOD HERE WITH SAND UP TO MY KNEES.
PRAYING AND A TRUSTING LORD I BEG YOU
OH PLEASE BRING ME RELIEF.
WON'T YOU SHOW ME A SIGN FROM HEAVEN
THAT YOU'VE NOT FORGOTTEN ME.
AND TAKE ME OUT OF THIS SANDY DESERT
AND SET MY FEET WHERE THEY OUGHT TO BE.
CHORUS
HE'S GONNA BRING ME OUT OF THE DESERT
WHERE IT'S SO DUSTY AND DRY.
HE'S GONNA BRING ME OUT OF THE DESERT
HE'LL NOT LEAVE ME HERE TO DIE.
HE'S GONNA TAKE ME WHERE THE WATER'S FLOWING
SO FULL AND SO FREE.
HE'S GONNA BRING ME OUT OF THE DESERT
AND SET MY FEET WHERE THEY OUGHT TO BE.
