The night is short
As the day is long
Coming home from work
Under a dying sun
Yeah, I got a job
Not one, but two
Just trying to make a living
And bring it home to you
Where is your savior?
He ain't in the clouds
He ain't on vacation
He's coming home now
He's got pain in his pockets
Just like his daddy do
Got no money for the market
For me and you
So mamma's gotta work
She's got her head on strong
She's always undercover
Right or wrong
Where is your savior?
She ain't in the clouds
She ain't in the heavens
She ain't making you proud
She wipes away the tears
Just like she always do
You might not understand it
But it's all for you
When the morning comes
Like the morning dew
Wash it all away son
Let your light shine through
Oh, how the morning comes
Like the morning do
Today's a new day, son
Let your light shine through
Poke it with a stick
See if the body moves
Oh, there ain't nothing left
For the soul to use
Oh, will it go down to heaven?
Or up to hell?
Will it wallow in the dirt?
Well, no one can tell
Where is your savior?
He fell off the sacred cow
He pissed off damnation
He kicked it in the mouth
There's devils on the surface
They ain't in the ground
Well, there is salvation
It's here and now
When the morning comes
Like the morning dew
Wash it all away son
Let your light shine through
Oh, how the morning comes
Just like the morning do
It's a new day, son
Let your light shine through
Oh
