Sometimes I hear you calling
I turn but you're not there
My heart is pierced with longing

I wish that you were here

Rolling waves of sorrow
Rivers of grief
In the valley of the shadow
I feel you walking with me
Saying carry on

I hear you in their voices
I see you in their eyes
A melody of another time
An echo of your life

Rolling waves of sorrow
Rivers of grief
In the valley of the shadow
I feel you walking with me
Saying carry on, carry on

There is another country far away
And I know that I will
Find you there
But until that day
I sing holy I cry holy
And I’m gonna carry on
Rolling waves of sorrow
Rivers of grief
In the valley of the shadow
I feel you walking with me

Rolling waves of sorrow
Rivers of grief
In the valley of the shadow
My soul will find release
