[This is actually a song by Styx, but I liked the lyrics
 so much that I thought I'd share them!]

Every night I say a prayer
In the hopes that there's a Heaven
But every day I'm more confused
As the Saints turn into sinners
Our heroes and legends I knew as a child
Have fallen to idols of clay
And I feel this empty place inside
So afraid that I've lost my faith

Show me the way
Show me the way
Take me tonight to the river
And wash my illusions away
And show me the way

And as I slowly drift to sleep
For a moment dreams are sacred
I close my eyes and know there's peace
In a world so filled with hatred
Then I wake up each morning
I turn on the news
And find we've so far to go
And I keep on hoping for a sign
So afraid I just won't know

Show me the way
Show me the way
Bring me tonight to the mountain
And take my confusion away
And show me the way

And if I see a light
Should I believe
Tell me how will I know

Show me the way
Show me the way
Take me tonight to the river
And wash my illusions away
Show me the way
Please show me the way
Give me the strenght and the courage
To believe that I'll get there someday
And please show me the way

And every night I say a prayer
In the hopes that there's a Heaven
