LONELY RIVER
|
(Wayne Kirkpatrick, Michael W. Smith)
|
|
Lonely river
|
You meander like a road
|
Stretching out into the great unknown
|
With solitary movement
|
You're compelled and you're enthralled
|
As though you're answering a distant call
|
|
Lonely river
|
Is there a place you're running to
|
Or is it something that you're running from
|
Is it hope that keeps you going
|
Is it faith that makes you strong
|
Lonely river, lonely river, running on
|
|
Lonely river
|
In the stillness of the night
|
Your restless nature keeps you raging on
|
Changing courses
|
Shallow waters, tangent streams
|
Lonely river, do you wonder what it means
|
|
Lonely river
|
I think I am a lot like you
|
Winding on in hopes to find the sea
|
And flooded by uncertainties
|
The current can be strong
|
But drifting towards our destinies
|
The arm of God is long
|
And I believe that through this journey
|
'Til we're finally home
|
Lonely river, we will never, run alone
|
|
