Every now and then
A fellow comes along
With pure intent
Imbedded in song
Lets the light on in
And the light gets strong
Every now and then
A fellow comes along
He could be preaching the gospel
Or just pitching a tent
Doing the impossible
And ending up spent
Every now and then
Every now and then
A fellow comes along
The mountain is high
And the road is long
The rivers are wide
When you can't go on
But you got to get it up
You've got to be strong
Every now and then
At night a light
comes on
He could be preaching the gospel
Or pitching a tent
Leaning toward new love
And ending up bent
Every now and then
A fellow comes along
