I Know Where I've Been

I Know Where I've Been Lyrics

I Know Where I've Been Song Lyrics

---

MISS MAYBELLE
There's a light
In the darkness
Though the night
Is black as my skin
There's a light
Burning bright
Showing me the way
But i know where i've been

There's a cry
In the distance
It's a voice
That comes from deep within
There's a cry
Asking why
I pray the answer's up ahead
yeah
'Cause i know where i've been

There's a road
We've been travelin'
Lost so many on the way
But the riches
Will be plenty
Worth the price
The price we had to pay

There's a dream
In the future
There's a struggle
That we have yet to win
And there's pride
In my heart
'Cause i know
Where i'm going
Yes I do !
And i know where i've been
Yeah

MISS MAYBELLE & ENSEMBLE
There's a road (There's a road)
We must travel (We must travel)
There's a promise (There is a promise)
We must make (That we must make)
But the riches (oh but the riches)
Will be plenty (The riches will be plenty)
Worth the risk (Worth the risk)
And the chances that we take (and the chances that we)
There's a dream
Yeah yey yeah
In the future

There's a struggle

That we have yet to win
Use that pride
In our hearts
To lift us up
Until tomorrow

'Cause just to sit still
Would be a sin

ENSEMBLE
I know it, i know it
I know where i'm going

Miss Maybelle
Lord knows i know..
Where i've been

Miss Maybelle & ENSEMBLE
Oh! When we win,
I'll give thanks to my god
'Cause i know where i've been
