The full length version from her 1988 album.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Shoulder to the wheel
For someone else's selfish gain
Here there is no choosing
Working the clay
Wearing their anger like a ball and chain.

Fire in the field
Underneath a blazing sun
But soon the sun was faded
And freedom was a song
I heard them singing when the day was done
Singing to the holy One.

Lead me on
Lead me on
To a place where the river runs
Into your keeping, oh.

Lead me on
Lead me on
The awaited deliverance
Comforts the seeking...lead on.

Waiting for the train
Labelled with a golden star
Heavy hearted boarding
Whispers in the dark
"Where are we going--is it very far?"

Bitter cold terrain
Echoes of a slamming door
Chambers made for sleeping, forever
Voices like thunder in a mighty roar
Crying to the Lord.

Lead me on
Lead me on
To a place where the river runs
Into your keeping, oh.

Lead me on
Lead me on
The awaited deliverance
Comforts the seeking...lead on.

Man hurts man
Time and time, time again
And we drown in the wake of our power
Somebody tell me why.

Lead me on
Lead me on
To a place where the river runs
Into your keeping, oh.

Lead me on
Lead me on
The awaited deliverance
Comforts the seeking...lead on.

Lead me on
Lead me on
To a place where the river runs
Into your keeping, oh.

Lead me on
Lead me on
The awaited deliverance
Comforts the seeking...lead on.

Songwriters: W. KIRKPATRICK, A. GRANT, M. W. SMITH

  • I have a BUNCH of vintage CCM music that's VERY hard to find - I am a true Amy Grant fan. I saw her in concert in April 2006, when I was 16 - BEST SHOW EVER! The best song from that concert was El Shaddai...it was beautiful. I thought she did this song way too fast at the concert - it was still good, though. Heaven on earth!

  • Thank you. This was a well-deserved GRAMMY winning album! Amy also won 3 Dove Awards in 1989 - Artist of the year, Pop/Contemporary Album of the Year - Lead Me On, and Short Form Music Video for Lead Me On. This was a Platinum album and went on to be named the best CCM album by CCM Magazine in 2001. VERY SOLID RECORD!
