[Verse 1] Nature, nurture heaven and home Sum of all, and by them, driven To conquer every mountain shown But Ive never crossed the river Braved the forests, braved the stone Braved the icy winds and fire Braved and beat them on my own Yet Im helpless by the river [Verse 2] Angel, angel, what have I done? Ive faced the quakes, the wind, the fire Ive conquered country, crown, and throne Why cant I cross this river? Angel, angel, what have I done? Ive faced the quakes, the wind, the fire Ive conquered country, crown, and throne Why cant I cross this river? [Chorus] Pay no mind to the battles youve won Itll take a lot more than rage and muscle Open your heart and hands, my son Or youll never make it over the river Itll take a lot more than words and guns A whole lot more than riches and muscle The hands of the many must join as one And together well cross the river Itll take a lot more than words and guns A whole lot more than riches and muscle The hands of the many must join as one And together well cross the river [Chorus] Nature, nurture heaven and home Itll take a lot more than words and guns Sum of all, and by them, driven A whole lot more than riches and muscle To conquer every mountain shown The hands of the many must join as one And together well cross the river Braved the forests, braved the stone Itll take a lot more than words and guns Braved the icy winds and fire A whole lot more than riches and muscle Braved and beat them on my own The hands of the many must join as one And together well cross the river [Outro] And together well cross the river And together well cross the river Nature, nurture heaven and home And together well cross the river And together well cross the river Nature, nurture heaven and home And together well cross the river And together well cross the river
