Lyrics
Let your soul be your pilot
Let your soul guide you
He'll guide you well

When you're down and they're counting
When your secrets all found out
When your troubles take to mounting
When the map you have leads you to doubt
When there's no information
And the compass turns to nowhere that you know well

Let your soul be your pilot
Let your soul guide you
He'll guide you well

When the doctors failed to heal you
When no medicine chest can make you well
When no counsel leads to comfort
When there are no more lies they can tell
No more useless information
And the compass spins
The compass spins between heaven and hell

Let your soul be your pilot
Let your soul guide you
He'll guide you well

And your eyes turn towards the window pane
To the lights upon the hill
The distance seems so strange to you now
And the dark room seems so still

Let your pain be my sorrow
Let your tears be my tears too
Let your courage be my model
That the north you find will be true
When there's no more useless information
And the compass turns to nowhere that you know well

Let your soul be your pilot
Let your soul guide you
Let your soul guide you
Let your soul guide you upon your way

(Your soul guide you along the way)
(Your soul guide you along the way_
Let your soul (Soul guide you along the way)
Let your soul (Soul guide you along the way)
Let your soul (Soul guide you along the way)
Let your soul (Soul guide you along the way)

When the doctor failed to heal you (Soul guide you along the way)
Only so many lies they can tell (Soul guide you along the way)
No more useless information (Soul guide you along the way)
Just your soul to guide you (Soul guide you along the way)

Let your soul (Soul guide you along the way)
Let your soul (Soul guide you along the way)
Let your soul (Soul guide you along the way)
Let your soul (Soul guide you along the way)

Let your pain, be my sorrow (Soul guide you along the way)
Let your tears, be my tears too (Soul guide you along the way)
Let your courage, be my model (Soul guide you along the way)
That the north you'll find (Soul guide you along the way)
That the north you′ll find, will be true (Soul guide you along the way)
Let your soul (Soul guide you along the way)
