chorus: | like a river close to sea
's flowing calm and patiently i am coming, oh my lord, have mercy! when my voice is down and low i can hear the trumpet blow you are calling me, oh lord, have mercy! | |
verse: | holy moses felt so tired
having made his people flee and the lord showed up in fire but he never, never, never did allow his face to see. | (Exodus 33) | |
when i left my home and brothers
strolling like a tumbling die well he always sent me others who did ever, ever, ever turn my mind back to rely. | |||
bridge: | ancient witness - come to guide me!
holy choir - lift my mind! all ye brothers - be aside me! when i come to see my lord so kind! | ||
verse: | i've seen trouble all around me
i know pain and grief and fear but my lord, he always found me and forever, -ever, -ever made my heart believe he's near. | ||
coda | |||
choir:
(continously) |
like the river -- close to sea | ||
soloist: | when you're calling -- give me patience
rise my mind up -- to perceive give me brothers -- to hold on to turn my heart back -- to believe |
