Lyrics

Oftentimes I dream of music of the river that freely flows.
And it sings a song sweeter than honey,
one everybody knows.

Late at night I hear it singing then again when I wake at dawn.
And it fills me up with hope and good will
the will to go on.....go on

CHORUS:
THERE IS A RIVER IN JUDEA
THAT I HEARD OF LONG AGO.
AND IT'S A SINGING, RINGING RIVER
THAT MY SOUL CRIES OUT TO KNOW.

I believe it keeps on travellin' but it rests on the Sabbath day.
And the time when it pauses in stillness,
I almost hear it pray.

When I'm weary and down hearted,
how I long for the song it sings,
for the calm within its gentle blue,
the peace that it brings

CHORUS (REPEAT)

May the time not be too distant when we meet by the river shore.
'Til the dream of that wonderful day as we sing once more, once more

FINAL CHORUS (REPEAT)
