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
