This Train
We ride this train
Always leaving something
As we always move along
Move along through time
All the headlight sees is darkness
In the great unknown
The great unknown
Heroes ride the train of life
Moving on in darkness
Leaving that once known
The horns blow out a warning
Headed to the future
The great unknown
The great unknown
This train stops for no one
Yet we’re all aboard
No soul knows where home is
‘Cept the one who knows the lord
No soul knows where home is
‘Cept the one who knows the Lord
I left my love behind us
In another time and place
But I’m sure to find it somewhere
When the big light sees your face
The train blows it’s mournful tune
Darkness all around
All around
Always moving forward
To that love unbound
The face of silence
Out in the great beyond
One day we’ll be upon it
True love and grace be found
True love and grace be found
This train stops for no one
Yet we’re all aboard
No soul knows where home is
‘Cept the one who knows the Lord
No soul knows where home is
‘Cept the one who knows the Lord
This train
This train moves on
This train
This train moves on
This Train is from the album ‘This Train’

Expecting my first son to be born any day now. I just added this to the playlist for my wife. It’s taken on a new meaning for us lately.
Ryan, Congratulations and lots of <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 to your and your wife as things unfold aboard this train... (those are little hearts, not little mice btw...)
A song full of grace.
“This Train” is a song for this plague season, where so much is unknown to us all. Yes, we are all aboard, moving along through time, into the great unknown…
