Girl Named Tom From This Valley
[Verse 1]
Oh, the desert dreams of a river
That will run down to the sea
Like my heart longs for an ocean
To wash down over me
[Chorus]
Oh, won't you take me from this valley
To that mountain high above?
Oh, I will pray, pray, pray 'til I see your smiling face
I will pray, pray, pray to the one I love
[Verse 2]
Oh, the outcast dreams of acceptance
Just to find pure love's embrace
Like an orphan longs for it's mother
Won't you hold me in your grace?
[Chorus]
Oh, won't you take me from this valley
To that mountain high above?
Oh, I will pray, pray, pray 'til I see your smiling face
I will pray, pray, pray to the one I love
[Bridge]
Ooh, whoa oh, whoa oh oh
Ooh, whoa oh, whoa oh oh
[Verse 3]
Oh, the caged bird dreams of a strong wind
That will flow beneath her wings
Like a voice longs for a melody
Oh, Jesus, carry me
[Chorus]
Oh, won't you take me oh from this valley
To that mountain high, high above?
Oh, I will pray, pray, pray 'til I see your smiling face
I will pray, pray, pray to the one I love
Oh, I will pray, pray, pray 'til I see your smiling face
I will pray, pray, pray to the one I love
