wide river to cross

there's a sorrow in the wind

blowing 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 gotta journey on

to where i'll find

find the things i have 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 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 gotta journey on

to where i'll find

i'll find the things i have 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 things that i have 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
