Dear River

Dear river, where do we go now
Now that your water's muddy
Your banks are straightened out
Dear river, I'm following you
Following where you lead
You know what to do, dear river

I'm following you from the Great Divide
Through cattail marsh, where herons hide
I'm following you, I'm following you
You'll make it down to the gulf one day
Reminding me we'll find a way
I'm following you, I'm following you

Dear river, where do we go now
Now that your water's muddy
Your banks are straightened out
Dear river, I'm following you
Following where you lead
You know what to do, dear river

I'm listening to the song your water sings
I start to hear new melodies
I'm listening to you, I'm listening to you
Dancing as your river rhythms speak
A steady hope, a patient peace
I'm listening to you, I'm listening to you

Dear river, where do we go now
Now that your water's muddy
Your banks are straightened out
Dear river, I'm following you
Following where you lead
You know what to do, dear river

River I think I've lost my way
But I can still hear mama say
Find the river, and it'll lead you back home
River guide all my friends
Who I've hurt, who I can't mend
And remind them that they are not alone

Dear river, where do we go now
Now that your water's muddy
Your banks are straightened out
Dear river, I'm following you
Following where you lead
You know what to do
Dear river, where do we go now
Now that your water's muddy
Your banks are straightened out
Dear river, I'm following you
Following where you lead
You know what to do, dear river
Dear river
Dear river
Dear river
