The Humbling River

Nature, nurture heaven and home

Sum of all, and by them, driven

To conquer every mountain shown

But I've never crossed the river

Braved the forests, braved the stone

Braved the icy winds and fire

Braved and beat them on my own

Yet I'm helpless by the river

Angel, angel, what have I done?

I've faced the quakes, the wind, the fire

I've conquered country, crown, and throne

Why can't I cross this river?

Angel, angel, what have I done?

I've faced the quakes, the wind, the fire

I've conquered country, crown, and throne

Why can't I cross this river?

Pay no mind to the battles you've won

It'll take a lot more than rage and muscle

Open your heart and hands, my son

Or you'll never make it over the river

It'll take a lot more than words and guns

A whole lot more than riches and muscle

The hands of the many must join as one

And together we'll cross the river

It'll take a lot more than words and guns

A whole lot more than riches and muscle

The hands of the many must join as one

And together we'll cross the river

(Nature, nurture heaven and home)

It'll take a lot more than words and guns

(Sum of all, and by them, driven)

A whole lot more than riches and muscle

(To conquer every mountain shown)

The hands of the many must join as one

And together we'll cross the river

(Braved the forests, braved the stone)

It'll take a lot more than words and guns

(Braved the icy winds and fire)

A whole lot more than riches and muscle

(Braved and beat them on my own)

The hands of the many must join as one

And together we'll cross the river

And together we'll cross the river

And together we'll cross the river

Nature, nurture heaven and home

And together we'll cross the river

And together we'll cross the river

Nature, nurture heaven and home

And together we'll cross the river

And together we'll cross the river
