Lost in a windswept land,
In a world of shifting sand a fragile flower stands apart,
And there in that barren ground you feel like the only one trying to serve him with all your heart,
And you wonder, wonder, can you last much longer?
This cloud you are under, will it cover you?
Desert rose, (desert rose)
Don’t you worry,
Don’t be lonely,
Heaven knows, (Heaven knows)
In a dry and weary land a flower grows,
Desert rose,
His desert rose.
Sometimes holiness can seem like emptiness when you feel the whole world’s laughing eyes,
If it’s a lonely day, know you’re on the father’s way,
He will hear you when you cry, and he will hold you, hold you,
Your father will hold you,
He will love you, love you for the things you do.
Desert rose, (desert rose)
Don’t you worry,
Don’t be lonely,
Heaven knows, (Heaven knows)
In a dry and weary land a flower grows,
His desert rose,
His desert rose,
His desert rose.
Desert rose,
Don’t you worry,
Don’t be lonely,
Heaven knows, (Heaven knows)
In a dry and weary land a flower grows,
His desert rose,
Desert rose.
Desert rose,
Don’t be lonely, don’t be lonely,
Desert rose,
Oh, don’t you worry,
Desert rose,
Don’t you know he’ll be with you?
Heaven knows, heaven knows,
He will hold your broken heart,
Oh, desert rose.
