River In Judea — текст песни (Feldman Jack)

Jack Feldman/Linda Marcus
Oftentimes I dream of music,
Of the river that freely flows.
And it sings a song sweeter than honey,
One everybody knows.
Late at night, I hear it singing.
Then again when I wake at dawn.
And it fills me up with hope and goodwill,
The will to go on,
Go on.
(Chorus)
There is a river in Judea
That I heard of long ago.
And it`s a singing, ringing river
That my soul cries out
To know.
I believe it keeps on trav`lin`
But it rests on the Sabbath day.
And the time when it pauses in stillness,
I almost hear it pray.
When I`m weary and downhearted,
How I long for the song it sings,
For the calm within its gentle blue,
The peace that it brings, it brings.
(Chorus)
There is a river in Judea
That I heard of long ago.
And it`s a singing, ringing river
That my soul cries out
To know.
May the time not be too distant
When we meet by the river (meet by the) shore.
`Til then dream of that wonderful day
As we sing once more, once more:
(Chorus)
There is a river in Judea (hallelu)
That I heard of long ago (hallelu),
It`s a singing, ringing river
That my soul cries out (my soul cries out)
To the river in Judea.
(optional repeat)
Hallelujah!!!
