Chris De Burgh The Rivers Of Abraham Lyrics

He walked alone up the rocky road
To find the place, to read the stone
And bring the word back from the top of the mountain
Where it would be

The lightning struck and the thunder roared
As he lifted it up in the name of the Lord
And many waited for the new revelation
They are ready to go, they're going home

And the rivers of Abraham are running free
With the dawn of a waking man and destiny
To the garden of Eden and Paradise
We will never be broken and we will never die

We cross the bridge to the silver bird
And say goodbye to the ones that we love
No skies or oceans in the place we are going
Like seeds on the wind The time has come, we shut the door
We are ready to go in the name of the Lord
A world is waiting for a new destination
We are ready to go, we're going home

And the rivers of Abraham are running free
With the dawn of a waking man and destiny
To the garden of Eden and Paradise
We will never be broken, we will never die

And the rivers of Abraham are running free
With the dawn of a waking man and destiny
To the garden of Eden and Paradise
We will never be broken, we will never die

And the rivers of Abraham are running free
We will never be broken and we will never die
