Joy Williams - From This Valley lyrics

Oh the desert dreams of a river That will run down to the sea Like my heart longs for an ocean To wash down over me [Chorus] Oh won't you take me from this valley To that mountain high above Oh I will pray, pray, pray 'til I see your smiling face I will pray, pray, pray to the one that I love Oh the outcast dreams of acceptance Just to find pure love's embrace Like an orphan longs for its mother May you hold me in your grace [Chorus] Ooh, whoa oh, whoa oh oh Ooh, whoa oh, whoa oh oh Oh the caged bird dreams of a strong wind That will flow beneath her wings Like a voice longs for a melody Oh Jesus, carry me [Chorus] Oh I will pray, pray, pray till I see your smiling face I will pray, pray, pray to the one that I love
