Take us to the river
Take us there in unity to sing
A song of your salvation
To win this generation for our King
Asong of your forgiveness
For it is with grace that river flows
Take us to the river in the city of our God
Take us to the throne room
And give us ears to hear
The cry of heaven
For that cry is mercy
Mercy to the fallen sons of men
For mercy it has triumphed
Triumphed over judgment by the blood
Take us to the throne room
In the city of our God

(For) the Spirit of the Sovereign Lord
Is upon us

This is the year of the Lord (repeat)
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
