Find a Way

last night was a rocky one

tonight is comin soon

the rain keeps fallin heavy on my head

my brothers and my sisters holding hands and marching on

is the only thing that gets me outa bed

i may cross the river jordan

i may face the rising tide

i got a simple plan to get us through these stormy days

hold on to each other find a way

we got to hold on to each other find a way

we got the preachers on the left, the politicians on the right

and the news shouts panic everywhere we turn

but when the ones who talk the loudest, also pay themselves the most

you better question what they're tryin to make you learn

i may cross the river jordan

i may face the rising tide

when their cards are on the table, there's only one good hand to play

hold on to each other find a way

we got to hold on to each other find a way

i'm marching for tomorrow, but sometimes i do despair

that i don't possess the will to carry on

but my brothers and my sisters keep me tethered to the wheel

and i know they'll keep on singin when i'm gone

i may cross the river jordan

i may face the rising tide

let our voices be a beacon til we live in better days

hold on to each other find a way

in our darkest hour here is what we must relay

hold on to each other find a way

through the toughest hurdles these eight words are all you have to say

hold on to each other find a way

hold on to each other find a way

we got to hold on to each other find a way
