Intro:               
                     
                     
                     


                   
Don't really have the courage
                    
To stand where I must stand
                   
Don't really have the temperament
               
To lend a helping hand


                  
Don't really know who sent me
                   
To raise my voice and say:
                            
May the lights in The Land of Plenty
                                        
Shine on the truth some day


                   
I don't know why I've come here
          
Knowing as I do
              
What you really think of me
                    
What I really think of you


                   
For the millions in a prison
                  
That wealth has set apart
                        
For the Christ who has not risen
                     
From the caverns of the heart


                 
For the innermost decision
                 
That we cannot but obey
                      
For what's left of our religion
                        
I lift my voice and pray:
                     /                          
May the lights in The Land of Plenty (May the lights)
                     /                          
May the lights in The Land of Plenty (May the lights)
                            
May the lights in The Land of Plenty
                                        
Shine on the truth some day


               
I know I said I'd meet you
                  
I'd meet you at the store
                 
But I can't buy it, baby
               
I can't buy it anymore


                        
And I don't really know who sent me
                   
To raise my voice and say:
                            
May the lights in The Land of Plenty
                     
Shine on the truth some day


                 
For the innermost decision
                 
That we cannot but obey
                      
For what's left of our religion
               
I lift my voice and pray:
                     /                          
May the lights in The Land of Plenty (May the lights)
                     /                          
May the lights in The Land of Plenty (May the lights)
                            
May the lights in The Land of Plenty
                                             ...
Shine on the truth some day
