Rock Me on the Water lyrics

Oh people, look around you

The signs are everywhere

You've left it for somebody other than you

To be the one to care

You're lost inside your houses

There's no time to find you now

While your walls are burning

And your towers are turning

I'm gonna leave you here

And try to get down to the sea somehow

The road is filled with homeless souls

Every woman, child and man

Who have no idea where they will go

But they'll help you if they can

Now, everyone must have some thought

That's gonna pull them through somehow

While the fires are raging hotter and hotter

But the sisters of the sun

Are gonna rock me on the water now

Rock me on the water

Sister, will you soothe my fevered brow?

Rock me on the water

I'll get down to the sea somehow

(I'll get down to the sea somehow)

Oh people, look among you

It's there your hope must lie

There's a sea bird above you

Gliding in one place

Like Jesus in the sky

We all must do the best we can

And then hang on to that Gospel plow

When my life is over

I'm gonna stand before the Father

But the sisters of the sun

Are gonna rock me on the water now

Rock me on the water

Sister, will you soothe my fevered brow?

Rock me on the water

Maybe I'll remember

Maybe I'll remember how

Rock me on the water

The wind is with me now

So rock me on the water

I'll get down to the sea somehow

(I'll get down to the sea somehow)

Rock me on the water

Rock me now

Rock me on the water

Rock me now
