V1.
Six twenty Asher Street
Number two twenty-four
Climbed the stairs to your motel room
I knelt beneath the cross by your door
I was living a life of sin
But you were quick to let me in
You introduced me to your friend
The Lord

Chorus
Friend can you show me 
The way, the truth, the life
Ain’t no good found out here
On these dark and dangerous nights
If you teach me I will listen
Follow the path to get me right
I just need a guiding hand
Towards the way, the truth, the life

V2.
December night in a ditch
Falling down from a high
Snowflakes landing on my face
As I woke in the cold outside
I was tough and young and loud
Leading a rough and rowdy crowd
Just twenty-three and lucky to be
Alive

Chorus
Friend can you show me 
The way, the truth, the life
Ain’t no good found out here
On these dark and dangerous nights
If you teach me I will listen
Follow the path to get me right
I just need a guiding hand
Towards the way, the truth, the life

Bridge
Got saved in a motel room
Sirens blaring in the background
It may have been a cheap motel
But it felt like Holy ground

Chorus
Friend can you show me 
The way, the truth, the life
Ain’t no good found out here
On these dark and dangerous nights
If you teach me I will listen
Follow the path to get me right
I just need a guiding hand
Towards the way, the truth, the life

Outro
If you teach me I will listen
Follow the path to get me right
I just need a guiding hand
Towards the way, the truth, the life
