I Know Where You've Been

I Know Where You've Been - The New Musical Cast

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

Cause I know where I've been

There's a road we've been traveling

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 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

There's a road we must travel

There's a promise we must make

Cause the riches will be plenty

Worth the risk and chances that we take

There's a dream in the future

There's a struggle

We have yet to win

Use that pride in our hearts

To lift us up to tomorrow

Cause just to sit still would be a sin

I know it I know it

I know where I'm going

And Lord knows I know

Where I've been

Oh when we win

I'll give thanks to my God

Cause I know where I've been
