You are here

At the River's Shore

Across the fields, down to the river
Where the marsh is bathed in sunset's glow
We will pour out our cup of sorrows
Let the tide take them wherever it may go

It's a cup shared by those who came before us
Those who've crossed that great divide
At the river's shore, we'll join their chorus
When we cross the river to the other side

In my dreams, I see them gathered
Your mum and pa, my mom and my dad
Other friends who passed so many years ago
From other times, some happy, some sad

In my dreams, the sorrow's vanished
There's a calm yet joyous glow
Their faces serene and full of kindness
At the river's shore, we'll meet again I know

Across the fields, down to the river
Where the marsh is bathed in sunset's glow
I face the sun and feel its kindness
We'll meet again at the river's shore I know
