I have to say my friends
This road goes a long, long way
And if we're going to find the end
We're gonna need a helping handI have to say my friends
We're looking for a light ahead
In the distance a candle burns
Salvation keeps the hungry children fedIt's gotta take a lot of salvation
What we need are willing hands
You must feel the sweat in your eyes
You must understand salvationA chance to put the devil down
Without the fear of hell
Salvation spreads the gospel round
And free you from yourself, oh ohIt's gotta take a lot of salvation
What we need are willing hands
You must feel the sweat in your eyes
You must understand salvationI have to say my friends
This road goes a long, long way
And if we're going to find the end
We're gonna need a helping handI have to say my friends
We're looking for a light ahead
In the distance a candle burns
Salvation keeps the hungry children fedIt's gotta take a lot of salvation
What we need are willing hands
You must feel the sweat in your eyes
You must understand salvationOh it's gotta take a lot of salvation
What we need are willing hands
You must feel the sweat in your eyes
You must understand salvation
