The wanderers and the pilgrims Sought to share your precious word And to travel in your footsteps Was their purpose and their goal
But the journey lies beyond the heart In a deeper faith And the road goes on into the light As we seek your face
And the way goes on Across the oceans Through the deep wood and the desert And the way goes on In the seeking Of my spirit into tomorrow
Alone inside my empty cell I search for you in the silence A road to life art thou O Lord And at journey's end lies my dwelling
But the journey lies beyond the heart In a deeper faith And the road goes on into the light As we seek your face
And the way goes on Across the oceans Through the deep wood and the desert And the way goes on In the seeking Of my spirit into tomorrow
