The River Unbroken

Waiting for the train to come I keep a waiting for the train to come Dreamin' of the river and the rising sun I keep thinkin' 'bout the world to come My life packed up in a suitcase Old man staring from a doorway My hope tarries in the distance Love comes on the wheels of my deliverance Where is the river unbroken When will the whistle blow Waitin' for the train to come I keep waitin' for the train to come Keepin' my appointment with the one who lives In the heart of everything that is All night sleepin' in a station My God, it's hard not to be impatient I watch through the windows of forgiveness I cry but my word's my only witness Where is the river unbroken When will the whistle blow Where is the river unbroken When will the whistle blow Sometimes I feel I can't go on, I can't go on I get so tired, all passion's gone My heart, my head, my arms, my legs, I get so tired Then something breaks inside my soul, my strength is gone That spirit's finally taking hold My ears can hear, my eyes can see Those clouds of joy still cover me, cover me, cover me Where is the river unbroken When will the whistle blow Where is the river unbroken When will the whistle blow Where is, where is the river unbroken When will the whistle blow Waiting for the train to come I keep waiting for the train to come
