Title: Orphan Girl
Album: The Very Best of Emmylou Harris: Heartaches and Highways
Artist: Emmylou Harris
Composer(s): Gillian Welch
Lyric:
I am an orphan on God's highway
But I'll share my troubles if you go my way
I have no mother, no father
No sister, no brother
I am an orphan girl
I have had friendships pure and golden
The ties of kinship have not known them
I know no mother, no father
No sister, no brother
I am an orphan girl
But when He calls me I will be able
To meet my family at God's table
I'll meet my mother, my father
My sister, my brother
No more an orphan girl
Blessed Savior make me willing
Walk beside me until I'm with them
Be my mother, my father
My sister, my brother
I am an orphan girl
I am an orphan girl
