From "Live in St. Paul"-DVD.

There's a slow train

Pulling through the desert

The colored cars pass quietly from sight

Between the highway and the long horizon

Precious dreams wind away with the light.

My brother's and my sisters' faces linger

The hours of our childhood, grave and gold

Driving through these solitary places

Memories of their gentile kinship

Touch my soul.

The hawk wheels away as we pass here

The clouds billow up and fly on

Down the road some hard turns

Are going to shake us

Ride with us

Through the breaking of the dawn.

Worry for my loving mother

The dimming years,

The trials she has known

Her heart so kind and so weary

Keep her safe one more night

'til I get home.

How I long to be right there beside her

And bring everything back to before

We'll arrive with the first light of morning

Keep her safe, let me hold her once more.

The sage and Joshua tree remind me

Of the miles to go,

The journey that we're on

In the still, sweet air of the desert

We will ride

Through The Breaking of the Dawn.

No other artist's music touches my soul like Fernando's. His music is annointed in a special way that is different than most music I have ever experienced. I hope his house is on the same street as mine in heaven.

A song to remember, this 'night' will soon break into the dawn, from one of my favorite songwriters, Fernando Ortega.

So beautiful - peaceful, calm and lovely. Jesus is like this. He gives us this. Since He first came into my life 28 years ago, He has helped me through many, many times. He has never left me. He is faithful.

Song and a Word

"The Promise has awaited us, who receive the better thing that God has provided in these last days, so that with us, our forebears might finally see the Promise completed.So since we stand surrounded by all those who have gone before, an enormous cloud of witnesses, let us drop every extra weight - every sin that clings to us and slackens our pace, and let us run with endurance the long race set before us." ~ Hebrews 11:40-12:1

I come to the river Jordan often looking to the other side . I'll come back one day no land behind me only forward through the waters till I'm there. Not alone there's the hand to guide me . The hand of the love I wasnever alone . Forward through the waters till I'm home
