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
