I'm standing in the shadow of the hill
I'm standing in the shadow of the hill
I feel a fear everywhere
I hope it don't get me killed
I'm standing in the shadow of the hill
I'm standing in the shadow walking blind
I've been unfair and unkind
I've turned away from your suffering
far too many times
Now I'm standing in the shadow walking blind
Sister, brother
there's a fire on the hill
And it's burning like a lantern
Making all this time stand still
Now I'm standing, standing....
Mother I am weak but I am strong
Standing in the darkness this long
But in the deepest darkness
I listen for your song
Mother I am weak, but I am strong
Now I'm standing
Standing in the shadow of the hill
