When will we wake up?
When will we allow our eyes to be opened?
When will we see that our promised land has dried up?
Our nation is dry and barren
The rivers of love and mercy have been dammed up
Our tears have been pushed away
We complain for more
Unwilling to change
We ask yet do not seek
We are unsatisfied with our loads of blessings
We walk around searching for truth
For living water
But we follow our own path
We have covered our eyes saying the light is just too much
So we wonder in the darkness
We settle for mud puddles
When we could be drinking fresh streams
When will we remove our hands?
When will we follow His Path?
When will we see we have dammed up the rives and the promise land has dried up?
The Father calls to His children
Come, open your hearts
My river is waiting
Follow my path to renew the land
Bask in my light and my goodness
Wash in the river
Cleans yourself from this filth
Drink of the river, refresh your soul
Drive in the river, go deeper and deeper
Flow with the river, and move with me.
Where the river goes there’s life
Stray from it and you will perish
You need my living water to survive
Come, Come to my river
I will guide you and protect you
Keep you full and safe
Nourish you back to health
Come, Come to my river
