Wide River to Cross

There's a sorrow in the wind

Blowin' down the road I've been

I can hear it cry while shadows steal the sun

But I cannot look back now

I've come too far to turn around

And there's still a race ahead that I must run

I'm only halfway home

I've got to journey on to where I'll find

Find the thing I've lost

I've come a long, long road

But still I've got some miles to go

I've got a wide, a wide river to cross

I have stumbled, I have strayed

You can trace the tracks I've made

All across the memories my heart recalls

But I'm still a refugee

Won't you say a prayer for me?

'Cause sometimes even the strongest soldier falls

I'm only halfway home

I've got to journey on to where I'll find

I'll find the thing I've lost

I've come a long, long road

But still I've got some miles to go

I've got a wide, a wide river to cross

I'm only halfway home

I've gotta journey on to where I'll find

I'll find the thing that I've lost

I've come a long, long road

But still I've got some miles to go

I've got a wide, a wide river to cross

I've got a wide, a wide river to cross
