lyrics

When you're down and they're counting
When your secrets, all found out
When your troubles, take to mounting
When the map you have, leads you to doubt
When there's no more information and the compass turns
To nowhere that you know well

Just let your soul, be your pilot
Let your soul guide you
He will guide you well

And when the doctors fail to heal you
And when no medicine chest, can make you well
When no counsel, leads to comfort
When there are no more lies, no more lies they can tell
When no more useless, useless, information and the compass spins
The compass spins between Heaven and Hell

An' your eyes turn toward the window pane
To the lights upon the hill
The distance seems so strange to you now
And the dark room seems so still

Let your pain, be my sorrow (Let your pain, be my sorrow)
Let your tears, be my tears too
Let your courage, be my model (oooohh be my model, yeah)
That the north you'll find, will always be true (oh-oh)
When there's no more information (no more information)
And the compass turns
To nowhere, that you know well

Just let your soul, be your pilot (Let it be your pilot)
Let your soul guide you
Along the way (along the way, yeah)
Oh along, along the way (Let your soul be guided, along the way)
Let your soul guide you
Let your pain be my sorrow and let your tears be my tears too (be my tears too)
Let your courage, yeah, be my model, be my model (courage be my model)
That the north you'll find, the north you'll find
The north you'll find, north you'll find, be true

Let your soul guide you
Let your soul guide you
Oh let your soul guide you, yeah
Let your soul guide you
Let him guide your steps, oh yeah
