Take us to the river

Take us there in unity

To sing a song of Your salvation

To win this generation for our King

A song of Your forgiveness

For it is with grace

That river flows

Take us to the river

In the city of our God

Take us to the throne room

And give us ears

To hear the cry of Heaven

For that cry is mercy

Mercy to the fallen sons of men

Mercy it has triumphed

Triumphed over judgement

By Your blood

Take us to the throne room

In the city of our God

The Spirit of the sovereign Lord is upon us

This is the year of the Lord

The Spirit of the sovereign Lord is upon us

This is the year of the Lord

Take us to the mountain

Lift us in the shadow of Your hand

Is this Your mighty angel

Who stands astride the ocean and the land

In His hand Your mercy showers

O’er a dry and barren place

Take us to the mountain

In the city of our God

For the Spirit of the sovereign Lord is upon us

This is the year of the Lord

For the Spirit of the sovereign Lord is upon us

This is the year of the Lord

Take us to the river

In the city of our God
