Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Through all these earthly trials of sorrow
Through all these days of mortal sin
Through all these eternal nights of no tomorrow
Gotta stay straighter than an arrow
Find a little light within
[Chorus]
Gotta walk that road, all the way to Heaven
Gotta walk that road, all the way to Heaven
Gotta walk that road, until the dawn
Gotta walk that road, until the dawn
Gotta walk that road all night, all we need is a little light
And the closer you get, Lord, brighter it turns on
[Verse 2]
Don't need no compass, no map or chart
I don't need no stars shining above
I don't need nothing but a little light in my heart
Glowing inside me like a blanket of love
[Verse 3]
Gotta walk that road, all the way to Heaven
Gotta walk that road, all the way to Heaven
Gotta walk that road, until the dawn
Gotta walk that road, until the dawn
Gotta walk that road all night, all we need is a little light
And the closer you get, Lord, brighter it turns on
[Outro]
I said, the closer you get, Lord, the brighter it turns on
