歌词
介绍:
"High, Low & Wide" was inspired by grief — the absence of someone whose loss compels us to reflect on our own lives. Like the Wayfaring Stranger who will someday meet his mother, there is a journey we all must go through to get there. It is said that each year we are inscribed in the book of life and as such we are required to acknowledge our own transgressions before it is sealed. Simply put, in the words of another great old spiritual:"Ain't nobody here who can do it for you, you've got to cross that lonesome valley by yourself."
I am but a shadow
Cast upon the road
And we are all but strangers
Bearing a heavy load
And all these worldly things
We won't need anymore
You'll only take your place
Standing on that shore
High, low and wide
That's just how big this ocean gets
Stronger than the tide
That's just how hard this journey is
You've got to cross it alone
You've got to cross it alone
You've got to cross it alone
To get back home
The efforts of the sun
Are wasted on the rain
There's nothing in this world
To take away your pain
High, low and wide
That's how big this ocean gets
Stronger than the tide
That's just how hard this journey is
You've got to cross it alone
You've got to cross it alone
You've got to cross it alone
To get back home
If you cross it alone
Free then you shall be
From the troubles that you know
Are we just sailing to get back home
You've got to cross it alone × 14
