Wait for the Light to Shine
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When the road is rocky and you're carrying the load
Wait for the light to shine
If you find your friendless on that weary lonesome road
Wait for the light to shine
Wait for the light to shine shine shine wait for the light to shine
Pull yourself together keep on looking for the sign
Wait for the light to shine
[ accordion ]
Don't forget your brother as you travel through the land
Wait for the light to shine
He may be in trouble and may need a helping hand
Wait for the light to shine
Wait for the light to shine shine shine wait for the light to shine
Never give up hope or cast your pearls and pour this wine
Wait for the light to shine
[ fiddle ]
Don't let trouble fool you and your sin will all be gone
Wait for the light to shine
Don't forget his darknest just before the break of dawn
Wait for the light to shine
Wait for the light to shine shine shine wait for the light to shine
Keep these words before you as you walk out narrow line
Wait for the light to shine
