Oh, the desert dreams of a river |
|
That will run down to the sea |
|
Like my heart longs for an ocean |
|
To wash down over me |
|
Oh, won't you take me from this valley |
|
To that mountain high above? |
|
I will pray, pray, pray |
|
'Til I see your smiling face |
|
I will pray, pray, pray |
|
To the one I love |
|
Oh, the outcast dreams of acceptance |
|
Just to find pure love's embrace |
|
Like an orphan longs for his mother |
|
May you hold me in your grace |
|
Won't you take me from this valley |
|
To that mountain high above? |
|
I will pray, pray, pray |
|
'Til I see your smiling face |
|
I will pray, pray, pray |
|
To the one I love |
|
Oh, the caged bird dreams of a strong wind |
|
That will flow beneath her wings |
|
Like a voice longs for a melody |
|
Oh, Jesus carry me |
|
Won't you take me from this valley |
|
To that mountain high above? |
|
I will pray, pray, pray |
|
'Til I see your smiling face |
|
I will pray, pray, pray |
|
To the one I love |
|
I will pray, pray, pray |
|
'Til I see your smiling face |
|
I will pray, pray, pray |
|
To the one I love |
