Let The River Run

Michael Ball · Other Songs - Michael Ball

Let the rivers run

Let all the dreamers wake the nation

Come, the new Jerusalem



Silver cities rise

The morning lights, the streets that meet them

Sirens call them on with a song



It's asking for the taking

Trembling, shaking

Oh, my heart is aching

Coming to the edge, running on the water

Coming through the fog, your sons and daughters



Sing the greatest song

Stand on a star

And blaze a trail of desire

Through the darkening dawn



Oh, it's asking for the taking

Come run with me now

The sky is the color of blue

You've never ever seen

In the the eyes of your lover

My heart is aching

Coming to the edge, running on the water

Coming through the fog, your sons and daughters



Oh, so sing the greatest song

Stand on a star

And blaze a trail of desire

Through the darkening dawn



Oh, it's asking for the taking

Trembling, shaking

Oh, my heart is aching

Coming to the edge, running on the water

Coming through the fog, your sons and daughters



Oh, so let the rivers run

Let all the dreamers wake the nation

Come, the new Jerusalem



Let the rivers run

Let all the dreamers wake the nation

Come, the new Jerusalem
