about

Written and Composed by Paul Williams

lyrics

When the mountain
Touches the Valley
All the clouds are taught to fly

Thus our souls
Will leave this land
Most peacefully

Though our minds be filled with questions
In our hearts we’ll understand
When the river meets the sea

Like a flower that has blossomed
In the dry and barren sand
We are born and born again so gracefully

Thus the winds of time will take us
With a sure and steady hand
When the river meets the sea

Patience, my brothers
And patience, my son
In that sweet and final hour
Truth and justice will be done

Like a baby when it is sleeping
In its loving mother’s arms
What a newborn baby dreams
Is a mystery

But his life will find a purpose
And in time he’ll understand
When the river meets the sea
When the river meets the almighty sea
