I see my light come shining From the west down to the east Any day now, any way now, I shall be released Well yonder stands a man in this lonely crowd, A man who swears he's not to blame. Yet all day long I hear him shouting so loud. He's crying out that he was framed. I see my light come shining From the west down to the east Any day now, any way now, I shall be released
