Delta Sunrise

Men of the times long gone
 Kept count of the days
 Observed and memorized
 The movements of the stars
 Boat to the river with an invitation
 And each year it answered them
 In rising waters a new beginning
 The weary land brought to life again
 Silently (silent)
 I can hear them speak to me
 I watch the sunrise
 Come forth high water, come forth new life
 The stranger who once was lost
 Has arrived into heaven
 I spend a rare moment
 In serenity
 Days gone and days to come
 And me in between
 Today I hear the voices of the past
 The songs float by along the riverbanks
 And here the wheel of time has come around
 Let the river flood over me
 Silently (silent)
 I can hear them speak to me
 I watch the sunrise
 Come forth high water, come forth new life
 The stranger who once was lost
 Has arrived into heaven
