G
[Verse]
G
Oh, the desert dreams of a river
DCG
that will run down to the sea
G
like my heart longs for an ocean
DCG
to wash down over me.
[Chorus]
CG
Oh, won't you take me from this valley
CD
to that mountain high above?
GD
I will pray, pray, pray
EmC
until I see your smiling face.
GD
I will pray, pray, pray
G
to the one I love.
[Verse]
G
Oh, the outcast dreams of acceptance,
DCG
just to find pure love's embrace
G
like an orphan longs for his mother.
DCG
May you hold me in your grace.
[Chorus]
CG
Oh, won't you take me from this valley
CD
to that mountain high above?
GD
I will pray, pray, pray
EmC
until I see your smiling face.
GD
I will pray, pray, pray
G
to the one I love.
[Bridge]
G
Oh, the caged bird dreams of a strong wind
DC
that will flow 'neath her wings.
G
Like a voice longs for a melody,
DG
oh, Jesus carry me.
[Chorus]
CG
Oh, won't you take me from this valley
CD
to that mountain high above?
GD
I will pray, pray, pray
EmC
until I see your smiling face.
GD
I will pray, pray, pray
G
to the one I love.
[Outro]
GD
I will pray, pray, pray
EmC
until I see your smiling face.
GD
I will pray, pray, pray
G
to the one I love.
