I got a dash-mount compass that won't direct
I got a "get rich" guru that calls collect
I got a psychic adviser saying "Get a lifeguard --
I'm gettin' bad vibes off of your deal-a-meal card"
Tell me why their words ring hollow
Lead the way and I will follow
If You can lead me out of this maze


I got shrinks that send me to victim class
I got talk show show-offs giving me gas
I got assertiveness trainers yelling "Shove, shove, shove"
I got no one teaching me how to love love
The more I chew the less I swallow
Lead the way and I will follow
Follow Your footsteps through this maze


Up we struggle, down we slide
Scared to call on a bigger guide
I'm tired of getting snowed, speed the plow
Lead the way, Lord Jesus, I'm ready now
