The sun is shining the children smiling |
|
As they walk along the golden sand |
|
The chosen people have climbed the steeple |
|
On their way to the promised land |
|
Across the river away from sorrow |
|
And on to freedom where there's peace of mind |
|
Someone beside them someone to guide them |
|
On their way to the promised land |
|
And by the river I'll be with you all the way |
|
Break: |
|
And by the river I'll be with you all the way |
|
There's milk and honey it's always sunny |
|
The people sing with their head in hand |
|
And soon their patience will be rewarded |
|
And they shall walk in the promised land |
|
And by the river I'll be with you all the way |
|
The sun is shining the children smiling |
|
As they walk along the golden sand |
|
The chosen people have climbed the steeple |
|
On their way to the promised land |
|
And by the river I'll be with you all the way |
|
The sun is shining the children smiling |
|
As they walk along the golden sand |
|
The chosen people have climbed the steeple |
|
On their way to the promised land |
|
And by the river I'll be with you all the way |
