Go West Young Man

Michael W. Smith

I'm blazing a trail that leads to vice
So easily enticed
By darker means
When out of the wilderness of choice
I hear that one still voice
Call to me

[Chorus]
Go west young man
Go west young man
When the evil go east
Go west young man
Go west young man
Find a heart that's golden

Why must I wander like a cloud
Following the crowd
Well I don't know
But I'm asking for the will to fight
To wear the crown of life
And you say go

[Chorus]

The mind is weak the heart is frail
When it goes beyond the pale
So unwise

[Chorus]
