If I could ease your pain,
If I could lighten your load.
If I could make it just a little better for you.
If I could just help you find,
That sacred place in your mind,
Where the light of understanding love,
Outshines the sun. 

You know, sweet moonshine is not just,
Illegal whiskey.
It can also be the light guides you,
Through the shadows of fear,
When the Devil is near,
An' you need some kind of helping hand,
To carry you through. 

Know you been livin' in a down hill arraign,
For seein' your death on a military plane.
You said: "Oh, now,
"Can't take no more now."
No doubt about it when you find out about it,
You gonna wanna run an' tell all your friends about it.
Easy, it's so easy. 

Peace on earth is comin' on strong,
You bad guys better believe us.
We're all workin' on the same sweet song,
You better get ready, by Jesus.
He'll never leave us,
Standin' in the middle of a road,
With a load of mankind's dirty laundry. 

We're all livin' in the same big boat,
An' you know we just can't fake it.
If you don't think that you can float,
C'mon, we'll help you make it.
Because we love you. 

If I could ease your pain,
If I could lighten your load.
If I could make it just a little better for you.
If I could just help you find,
That sacred place in your mind,
Where the light of understanding love,
Outshines the sun. 

Where the light of understanding love,
Outshines the sun.
