That's the Way the Wheel Turns




That’s the way the wheel turns

You can count on it being true

Men build their Babels and live in those towers

Any presupposition will do.

But  the walls keep tumbling down

The truth is still setting men free

So pity the fool and the clown

Who thinks they write their destiny


So turn on the light And let the wheels turn

The blind get their sight When the True truth they learn.


You may think you’re smarter than God

You may think it’s all under control

But when it shakes out at the end of the day

You just only fooling your soul

The factory of idols churns

All pretty and shallow and bright

There’s some kind of worship at every turn

But who forgot to turn on the light


So turn on the light And let the wheels turn

The blind get their sight When the True truth they learn.


Assumptions are having your spirit for lunch

When you go with your feelings or go with a hunch

That’s just the way the wheel turns today 

What goes around comes around they say

For every win there a loss and a related gut punch


Yeah, turn on the light And let the wheels turn

The blind get their sight When the True truth they learn.

So turn on the light And let the wheels turn

The blind get their sight When the True truth they learn.
