Let The River Run

We're coming to the edge

running on the water

coming through the fog

your sons and daughters



Let the river run

let all the dreamers wake the nation

Come, the New Jerusalem.



Silver cities rise

the morning lights the streets that lead them

and sirens call them on with a song



It's asking for the taking

trembling

shaking

Oh, my heart is aching



We're coming to the edge

running on the water

coming through the fog

your sons and daughters



We the great and small

stand on a star

and blaze a trail of desire

through the darkening dawn



It's asking for the taking

Come run with me now

the sky is the color of blue

you've never even seen

in the eyes of your lover



Oh, my heart is aching

We're coming to the edge

running on the water

coming through the fog

your sons and daughters



It's asking for the taking

trembling, shaking

Oh, my heart is aching



We're coming to the edge

running on the water

coming through the fog

your sons and daughters



Let the river run

let all the dreamers

wake the nation

Come, the New Jerusalem
