Going down along THE ROAD TO RIGHTEOUSNESS

Clutching letters in my hand;

Off to cleanse the land of heresy.

 

Marched my troops along the ROAD TO RIGHTEOUSNESS

Never questioning the goal

Passing broken men I did not see.

 

From my youth I followed only the truth

To God I promised my sword.

To free the kingdom of venomous men

Making it clean and right again.

 

On parade along the ROAD TO RIGHTEOUSNESS

Filled with swagger and with steam;

Off to win a war of sovereignty.

 

What's that-- lightning?Thrown down -- frightning!

Blinded, righted, fallen, callen--

Asking me questions that haunt me.

 

Led by hand along the ROAD TO RIGHTEOUSNESS

In the darkness of my soul;

Certain that my tale would be re-told.

 

Led by hand along the ROAD TO RIGHTEOUSNESS

Seeing changes in my soul;

Knowing all of life would yet unfold.

 

All my youth had led me here to the truth--to God..
