Midnight Train

Jesus' mother
She knelt and prayed
But the child that she loved
Could not be saved
Is it hard for thee?
It is hard for me
Atoms we are
In a fathomless sea

Hot tears falling
I kneel behind the barn
Tears for my father
Ten years gone
It's a crazy ride
See the mountain slide
To the ocean's shore
And the ocean's tide

I wait in the shadow
Of Jericho's wall
I keen my ear
For the trumpet's call
In the heat of day
I embrace it all
But it's you that I seek
At twilight's fall

Such a crazy ride
Ah, be by my side
The moment revealed
As the shining bride
My heart, it pounds
As the trumpet sounds
My faith is sealed
It is iron-bound

Here I stand
On the shifting sand
I'm looking across
To the promised land
The Jordan River
Is deep and wide
Who will I be
On the other side?

Such a crazy ride-
Ah, be by my side
As the mountains slide
To the great divide
It's heaven on earth
It's a world of pain
Jesus is coming
On the midnight train

And Jesus' mother
She knelt and prayed
But the child that she loved
Could not be saved
Is it hard for thee?
It is hard for me
Atoms we are
In a fathomless sea

Hot tears falling
I kneel behind the barn
Tears for my father
Ten years gone
It's heaven on earth
It's a world of pain
Jesus is coming
On the midnight train
Jesus is coming
On the midnight train
