New River |
It took forever and a day for the canyons and coasts to erode away |
By the weight of the ocean’s cyclical motion they swayed |
And though the eons may pass as slow as the sands of an hourglass |
Every grain that we’ve counted claims that even the mountains can change |
Let it come down, let it come down |
Let it make in you a new river |
Let it come down, let it come down |
Let it make in you a new river |
I know the winds from the south have the waves riled up like a hungry mouth |
And your stomach goes hollow at the thought that it could swallow you whole |
Well, it’ll rain for forty days and nights, and nothing you do can slow the |
rising tides |
But the river takes her shape from every tempest she abides |
And like her, you’ll be made new again |
Let it come down, let it come down |
Let it make in you a new river |
Let it come down, let it come down |
Let it make in you a new river |
Let it come down, let it come down |
Let it make in you a new river |
Let it come down, let it come down |
Let it make in you a new river |
Let it come down, let it come down |
Let it make in you a new river |
Let it come down, let it come down |
Let it make in you a new river |
