Nuestra Señora de la Frontera

You've travelled far and gave so much
No child to hold, no wife to touch
A journey of freedom, or something as such
I am here with you

You risked your life to come to be
Inside a "land of liberty"
Coyotes lie, patrollers you'll flee
But I am here with you

The burning sun, the deathly heat
The swelling blisters on your feet
You think today it's God you'll meet
But know I'm here with you

You pray for life, but death seems near
But your love for God subsides your fear
And all you've come here for is dear
And I am here with you

A Devil’s Highway, the path you chose
The pain of walking from head to toes
You lay down to die, none left you suppose
But I am always here with you

Now sleep beneath the heaven’s moon
For you will be with me soon
Ya duérmete mi niño
Yo estoy contigo
