On the Other Side

by Anne Murray

Through each lifetime run rivers to cross,
what if there’s no life line and you’re sinking or lost?
Just believe in your direction,
let your heart explore,
cause you can’t reach new horizons,
standing on the shore.

There are mountains we need to climb,
but the mountains standing in the way
are only in our minds.
And the risk of going nowhere
is the greatest risk of all.
So just listen to the voice that says,
I’ll catch you if you fall.

On the other side of doubt is faith,
on the other side of pain lies strength.
The journey may seem endless,
and you know the road is rough,
but on the other side of fear ... is love.

For such a long time I put my dreams aside.
The tides of change felt dangerous,
the mountains seemed too high.
But my dreams were slowly fading
as time went quickly by.
So I held my breath with every step,
never knowing I would find ...

On the other side of doubt is faith,
on the other side of pain lies strength.
The journey may seem endless,
and you know the road is rough,
but on the other side of fear ... is love.
