about

'One More River' taken from the album Mystery Songs

lyrics

You can’t buy a ticket
To cross the final river
He calls you when he’s ready to
The good folk and the sinner
The merchant in his finery
Will sit next to the pauper

And the trials of everyone must end
In him we trust our hearts to mend
He takes the tiller in his hand
Oh captain!

One more river to cross
One more river, one more river
One more river to cross

There’s no such thing as first class
No need to bring your wallet
He knows just how you've spent your days
He’s got a seat with your name on it
The bow is facing westward now
The golden sun shines on it

And the trials of everyone must end
In him we trust our hearts to mend
He takes the tiller in his hand
Oh captain!

One more river to cross
One more river, one more river
One more river to cross
