As evening's early shadows
meet the fading light of day
that's when I wonder, when I pray, Lord:
Show me the way...
Show me the way, Lord,
the path you'd have me walk...
Shoe me the way,
in what direction I might head... Show me the way, Lord,
the turns you'd have me make...
Show me the way
that leads me closer to your heart...
Show me the way, Lord,
where I can use and share my gifts...
Show me the way
where your Spirit bids me
Show me the way, Lord,
to the peace that's mine to find...
Show me the way
where you wait for me to join you...
Show me the way, Lord,
where I'll find your word, your truth and life...
Show me the way
where I'll only find my way to you...
Protect me, Lord, along my way,
keep vigil while I sleep
that awake, I keep the watch with you
and asleep, rest in your peace...
Amen.
In thinking about a song for tonight's prayer,
my mind went back to Godspell...

Where are you going?
Where are you going?
Can you take me with you?
For my hand is cold
And needs warmth
Where are you going?
Far beyond where the horizon lies
Where the horizon lies
And the land sinks into mellow blueness
Oh please, take me with you
Let me skip the road with you
I can dare myself
I can dare myself
I'll put a pebble in my shoe
And watch me walk (watch me walk)
I can walk and walk!
(I can walk!)
I shall call the pebble Dare
I shall call the pebble Dare
We will talk, we will talk together
We will talk (chorus) about walking
Dare shall be carried
And when we both have had enough
I will take him from my shoe, singing:
"Meet your new road!"
Then I'll take your hand
Finally glad
Finally glad
That I am here
By your side
Where are you going?
Can you take me with you?
For my hand is cold
And needs warmth
Where are you going?
Far beyond where the horizon lies
Where the horizon lies
And the land sinks into mellow blueness
Oh please, take me with you
Let me skip the road with you
I can dare myself
I can dare myself
I'll put a pebble in my shoe
And watch me walk (watch me walk)
I can walk and walk!
(I can walk!)
I shall call the pebble Dare
I shall call the pebble Dare
We will talk, we will talk together
We will talk (chorus) about walking
Dare shall be carried
And when we both have had enough
I will take him from my shoe, singing:
"Meet your new road!"
Then I'll take your hand
Finally glad
Finally glad
That I am here
By your side
By my side...
