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
Oh, won't you take me from this valley
To that mountain high above?
I will pray, pray, pray
Till I see your smiling face
I will pray, pray, pray
To the one I love
Oh, the outcast dreams of acceptance
Just to find pure love's embrace
Like an orphan longs for his mother
May you hold me in your grace
Won't you take me from this valley
To that mountain high above?
I will pray, pray, pray
Till I see your smiling face
I will pray, pray, pray
To the one I love
Ooh, ooh
Oh, oh
Ooh, ooh
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
Oh, won't you take me from this valley
To that mountain high above?
Oh, I will pray, pray, pray
Till I see your smiling face
I will pray, pray, pray
To the one I love
I will pray, pray, pray
Till I see your smiling face
I will pray, pray, pray
To the one I love
