Father, bring Your sons and daughters
Bring them everyone
To leave them is to love them
Now it must be done
All you have taught them
All you have talked about
Has prepared them well
Bring Your songs and bring Your daughters
Bring the warning bell
The current of the river
The current of the river
Brings voices on the water
Brings voices on the water
The current of the river
The current of the river
Brings voices on the water
Brings voices on the water
Lock Your doors and all Your windows
Climb the roves and spires
Burning brightly in the distance
Are the creeping fires
All you have worked for
All Your prosperity
Will not rescue them
Father, fighting for Your family
You will see again
The current of the river
The current of the river
Brings voices on the water
Brings voices on the water
All, all
The current of the river
The current of the river
Brings voices on the water
Brings voices on the water
All, all
The current of the river
The current of the river
Brings voices on the water
Brings voices on the water
