Artist/Band: Emmylou Harris
Lyrics for Song: Prayer in Open D
Lyrics for Album: Spyboy [Eminent] [1998]



(Emmylou Harris)



There's a valley of sorrow in my soul

Where every night I hear the thunder roll

Like the sound of a distant gun

Over all the damage I have done.



And the shadows filling up this land

Are the ones I built with my own hand

There is no comfort from the cold

Of this valley of sorrow in my soul.



There's a river of darkness in my blood

And through every vein I feel the flood

I can find no bridge for me to cross

No way to bring back what is lost.



Into the night it soon will sweep

Down where all my grievances I keep

But it won't wash away the years

Or one single hard and bitter tear.



And the rock of ages I have known

Is a weariness down in the bone

I used to ride it like a rolling stone

Now I just carry it alone.



There's a highway risin' from my dreams

Deep in the heart I know it gleams

For I have seen it stretching wide

Clear across to the other side.



Beyond the river and the flood

And the valley where for so long I've stood

With the rock of ages in my bones

Aomeday I know it will lead me home. oh, oh, oh...
