Lyrics Tara MacLean

Tara MacLean

Jordan

Forty years the wilderness held my sad children

Promises of lands that flow with milk and honey

Hold me Jordan, hold me Jordan

The builders of the wall, the temple fell

The sun and moon stood still circled by

By the twelve stones of Jordan, hold me Jordan

Tomorrow you will walk on water

Oh, twelve stones, twelve stones of Jordan

Tomorrow you will take me down to the river

Oh, twelve stones, twelve stones of Jordan

Well, divided were the waters at the feet of the priests

And did you see me Joshua, standing in the Jordan

See the open wounds flowing from your hands

Flowing from your feet, hold me Jordan

Tomorrow you will walk on water

Oh, twelve stones, twelve stones of Jordan

Tomorrow you will take me down to the river

Oh, twelve stones, twelve stones of Jordan

Oh, now you hungry my sad children

And are you thirsty, run to the river

And are you angry my sad children

Take the twelve stones, twelve stones of Jordan
