Reach out your hand if your cup be empty  
If your cup is full may it be again  
Let it be known there is a fountain  
That was not made by the hands of men

There is a road, no simple highway  
Between the dawn and the dark of night  
And if you go no one may follow  
That path is for your steps alone

Ripple in still water  
When there is no pebble tossed  
Nor wind to blow

You who choose to lead must follow  
But if you fall you fall alone  
If you should stand then who’s to guide you?  
If I knew the way I would take you home

Im not the guardian of this thread, but I like when the quoted lyrics are also shared with the song so we can see them in their full glory
