I'm standing in the shadow of the hill

I'm standing in the shadow of the hill

Feel the fear everywhere

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 & unkind

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

I'm standing, I'm standing, I'm standing

I'm standing, standing, standing

Mother, I am weak but I am strong

Standing in the darkness this long

But in the deepest darkness I listen to your song

Mother I am weak but I am strong

I'm standing, and I'm standing, I'm standing 

I'm standing, standing, standing, I'm standing

Standing in the shadow of the hill
