D D7
When the mountain touches the valley, all the
G
clouds are taught to fly.
D A A7
So our souls will leave this land most peacefully.
D
Though our minds be filled
G E
with questions, in our hearts, we'll understand.
D A G D
When the river meets the sea.
D D7 G
Like a flower that has blossomed, in the dry and
D
barren sand. We are born,
A D D7
and born again most gracefully. Thus the winds of time will take us with a
G E D A G D D7
sure and steady hand. When the river meets the sea.
G D
Patience my daughters, and patience my sons.
E A
In that sweet and final hour, truth and justice will be done!
D D7 G D
Like a baby when it is sleeping in its loving mother's arms. What a new born
A A7 D
baby dreams is a mystery. But his life will find a purpose, and in
G E D A G D D A
time, he'll understand. When the river meets the sea. When the river meets
G D A G D
the almighty sea.
