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
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
Mercy it has triumphed
Triumphed over judgement
By Your blood
Take us to the throne room
In the city of our God
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
Take us to the mountain
Lift us in the shadow of Your hand
Is this Your mighty angel
Who stands astride the ocean and the land
In His hand Your mercy showers
O'er a dry and barren place
Take us to the mountain
In the city of our God
For the Spirit of the sovereign Lord is upon us
This is the year of the Lord
For the Spirit of the sovereign Lord is upon us
This is the year of the Lord
Take us to the river
In the city of our God
