Rise, rise, rise sweet waters, let them rise.
Lately, Leviathon has crept up from the south
Up the river, Jordan with its ever thirsty mouth
Drinks some drinks and drink some drinks, its never satisfied,
But belowBut below, the river has died.
Wild dogs please, my friend, dont leave your shepha
Let the lifeless waters flow to the valley of tears
Stand up with us and together we ll see
A land of the light of the the free
Rise, rise, rise, rise sweet waters
Let, let them rise
Rise, rise, rise, rise sweet waters
Let, let them rise
Dark side of hope is that it keeps us paralized.
Waiting for the yonder man, savior from the other side
Dont ya see, the mystery unfolding over there.
So let s cross and not sit and stare
Rise, rise, rise, rise sweet waters
Let, let them rise
Rise, rise, rise, rise sweet waters
Let, let them rise
Guitar Solo
Rise, rise, rise, rise sweet waters
Let, let them rise
Rise, rise, rise, rise sweet waters
Let, let them rise
Forty years in searching shows one things thats certain true
You ve got to find the river first, before you can cross on through
Prophets find the path, but they can t take us to the other side
So let s cross, I said, Don t hide
(2x)
Rise, rise, rise, rise sweet waters
Let, let them rise
Rise, rise, rise, rise sweet waters
Let, let them rise
