The River Swift - Joel Zoss

    I'll never stop loving you
    And I couldn't even if you asked me to
    Do you remember on the popping moon
    How the sun shone down on the crystal pool
    How the ships came sailing in
    How the birds began to sing
    All heaven's glory
    Dazzled the eye
    How the River Swift keeps rolling
    Far from these prisons' scarlet walls

    They said it was a sailing ship
    But it sailed on the line of the dead and the quick
    Mama mama won't you come here quick
    There's a light shining down 'bout to make me sick
    How the river shone like fire
    How the light flashed in the tower
    All heaven's glory
    Dazzled the eye
    How the River Swift keeps rolling
    Far from these prisons' scarlet walls

    They said a voice began to speak
    And the words were in a line
    They said a singing sound came down
    And the words were all in rhyme
    And they said that it spoke of love
    And they said that it spoke of love
    When there's peace on earth
    When there's truth on earth

    You've heard it on your tv screen
    How the light came down and that crazy scene
    100 million years ago
    When Mary and Joseph went to Mexico
    How the people fell at their feet
    How their words were oh so sweet
    There was nothing real
    It was all done with mirrors
    How the River Swift keeps rolling
    Far from these prisons' scarlet walls
    How the River Swift keeps rolling
    Far from these prisons' scarlet walls
