VERSE(1):
Take us to the river
Take us there in unity to sing
A song of your salvation
To win this generation for our King
A song of your forgiveness
For it is with grace that river flows
Take us to the river
In the city of our God
VERSE(2):
Take us to your throne room
Give us ears to hear the cry of heaven
For that cry is mercy
Mercy to the fallen sons of man
For mercy has triumphed
Triumphed over judgment by the blood
Take us to the throne room
in the city of our God
CHORUS:
For the spirit of the sovereign Lord is upon us
this is the year of the Lord
The spirit of the sovereign Lord is upon us
This is the year of the Lord
VERSE(3):
And take us to the mountain
Lift us in the shadow of your hands
Is this your mighty angel
Who stands astride the ocean and the land
For in his hand your mercy
Showers on a dry and barren place
Take us to the mountain
In the city of our God
