"Common Ground" lyrics - WALTER TROUT

I look all around me, and what do I see?
Pain and anger everywhere
An' so much hatred, fear and misery
Lord we wonder, are you there?

If there's a place where the truth can still be found
Lord lead us to the common ground
Lord lead us to the common ground, oh yeah

An' if tommorow can be a better day, won't you please show the way
'Cause the daylight fades, and the night is so long
We need your hand to keep us strong

An' we get lost when there's darkness all around
Lord lead us to the common ground
I said, Lord lead us to the common ground

Distance between us grows greater everyday
An' hope just fades away, we begin to feel
Like we done all that we can do
Lord we turn to you, Lord Lord we turn to you

We need to come together, put away our earthly pride
To hear your voice, we only need to come 'long side
Be gen'rous with your spirit, and show us what is right
Smile on us, and let us see the light

If there's a place where truth can still be found
Lord lead us to the common ground
If there's a place where the truth can still be found
Lord won't you lead us, I said, Lord won't you lead us
Lord lead us to the common ground

Won't you lead us home
Won't you lead us home, yeah, yeah, yeah
Lead us, Lord lead us home
