Lyrics
THE JOURNEY
(c) JC Tubbs 12/2001
Verse 1
Life is a JOURNEY
From the river to the sea
My mom and my daddy wait patiently for me
When I reach my destination
In my JOURNEY to the sea
We'll again live all together
In one big family
Verse 2
In my JOURNEY down the river I sometimes have been lost
I've sweltered in the heat and shivered in the frost
But I have never lost my focus because I do believe
The Riverboat Captain is watching over me
Verse 3
Let the waters rush over me cleanse my sins, wash me free
The river may be raging but calls out to me
And takes me ever closer in my JOURNEY to the sea
[modulate]
Verse 4
Life is a JOURNEY
From the river to the sea
My mom and my daddy wait patiently for me
When I reach my destination
In my JOURNEY to the sea
I will lose my trials and troubles
And finally find my peace
And finally find my peace
Life is a JOURNEY
