Uriah Heep - The River lyrics

River, rising to hide Across the midnight Wanderin' westward by daylight Take us and lead us to tomorrow As fast as you come and can flow River, you're windin' An unending rhythm The sooner keep Movin' to warn him The spirit that keeps Us from sinking Guide us from going astray Point us a way To a shoreline ahead Through the mist and the fog Of this valley of d**h Too many years we have Walked in a sleep Now we're awaken and ready fo flee River, we hitchhikers Beggin' for mercy Survive us from yesterday's curses Don't damn us Before you receive us We're needin' your face And your trust
