Standing in the saddle I can see
A train up the road in front of me
They are on their way to town
I got horses loaded down
I'm headed for the hills of my dreams
From the hills I look upon the mountains
A valley and a river and some trees
They are calling to the man
Who has no place left to stand
They offer him some comfort and peace
Hey Joe, help the white horse with her load
Keep your nose on this wilderness road
We are tired, we have all run through the fire
Flaming bullets from the posse of the Sheol
We must leave them on this wilderness road
Ride out of the wilderness
We've been left the city for a long time
They didn't seem to like us nohow
So me and the horses go
Down this long and dusty road
I know they won't get to us now
Ain't that many makes it to the mountain
They always find another place to run
But we will chase the Light
Though the darkness fills the night
We'll make it by the Rising Sun
Hey Joe, help the white horse with her load
Keep your nose on this wilderness road
We are torn by the sage and by the storm
Praying all the way as we go
Our Life is at the end of this road
I am riding by night out of the wilderness
My accuser's bearing down on my heels
They will chase me 'til I reach Mount Revelation
I know that my Redeemer lives
Ride by night out of the wilderness
Holding Truth against the posse from Hell
Though the dust blind your eyes
You will see your mountain rise
Leave your past in the dust of this trail
Leave your past on this wilderness trail
Ride out of the wilderness
Even though you ride alone
You gon' make it to your mountain
You gon' make in to your home
Keep on riding on
Your Redeemer will not fail
Keeping on praying
Keep on riding on now
Leave your past along this trail
Ride on now
