Lyrics

Praise on the prairie at twilight. The sun is slowly kneeling in the west. Another day with the lady I love so on this wagon trail. Here we pause for a rest. The love we share has been our only shelter, and I pray to find where our new life can begin. She hushes me with a whispering voice of an angel, stills my restless heart to come join her within. And she kisses me so softly like the wind across the plain, and she holds me in the moment as we roam across the land ever wild and changing where her silver voice always welcomes me home. This road that we travel is hard, and Beauty?s touch so fleeting like holding a stream as our wheels turn to that rainbow horizon and the final home we both hold in a dream. And she kisses me so softly like the wind across the plain, and she holds me in the moment as we roam across the land ever wild and changing where her silver voice always welcomes me home. The coyote cries with a longing so lonely, and the cricket chorus calls out its labor of love, and the stars hum forth a song of redemption, and the Living God beckons us here as above. And she kisses me so softly like the wind across the plain, and she holds me in the moment as we roam across the land ever wild and changing where her silver voice always welcomes me home.
