lyrics

SISTERS OF THE ROAD

As I lay me down to sleep
here among your broken sheep
Crying out for love to keep
the beaten and the bowed

Lying here with rogues and thieves
someone comes who still believes
Tender arms in folded sleeves
sisters of the road

Nothing here is guaranteed
joy or sorrow, love or greed,
Live the life you're meant to lead
you'll reap the one you’ve sow'd

Heaven helps what heaven heals
and the morning sun reveals
Humble hearts in heaven's wheels
sisters of the road

Though at times you'll stand alone
and your soul grow hard as bone
Still there's water in that stone
as fine as ever flowed

Wish it may and wish it might
lead us kindly through the night
Daily closer to the light
our heroes ever showed

With all that love and grace intend
mile to mile and friend to friend
From Delano to the rainbow's end
sisters of the road

So praised be love
and thanks be said
for the roses and the bread
and the sky above our heads
sweet nature has bestowed

For the crazy world's designing
clever clouds with silver lining
and your presence ever shining
Sisters of the Road
