Gonna walk like an astronaut to give you some space,
Gonna find myself in a familiar place,
So I'll know,
Oh I'll know,
Gonna walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
Gonna draw my name before my final breath,
So I'll know,
Oh I'll know that,
All I want is freedom,
And Lord, give me a reason,
Cause all I want is your hand, your hand, your hand.
All I want is everything I've ever had and more,
Oh Lord, Oh Lord,
I wish I believed,
I wish I believed,
I wish I believed,
I wish I believed.
I'll pretend I'm a wise man to find my fool,
Impart all I know before I lose it all,
And I'll sing to the sky,
When I'm left by the roadside all alone,
When the pavement edge is my only home,
I'll still sing to the sky, singing,
All I want is freedom,
and Lord, give me a reason,
Cause all I want is your hand, your hand, your hand.
All I want is everything I've ever had and more,
Oh Lord, Oh Lord,
I wish I believed,
I wish I believed,
I wish I believed,
I wish I believed.
In the room women come and go talking of Michelangelo,
And indeed there will be time to wonder,
Do I dare,
Do I dare.
Singing,
All I want is freedom,
and Lord, give me a reason,
Cause all I want is your hand, your hand, your hand.
All I want is everything I've ever had and more,
Oh Lord, Oh Lord,
I wish I believed,
I wish I believed,
I wish I believed,
I wish I believed.
I wish I believed,
I wish I believed,
I wish I believed,
I wish I believed.
