Down by the river
In the town by the river
They need our help
Close to the river
I've seen friends of the river
Now they are all gone
Down by the river
In the town by the river
They toll the bell

And if we give them what they need
Maybe they survive
Oh let us praise the holy sea
Maybe they'll survive
So let us give them what they need
And maybe they'll survive

Into the river
They jumped into the river
To save your souls
In the town by the river
Some wise men they shiver
Because they are told
To ask the old river
If it is right to deliver
Just sing their song

And if we give them what they need
Maybe they'll survive
Oh let us praise the holy sea
Maybe they'll survive
So let us give them what they need
And maybe they'll survive
Maybe they'll survive

Drown in the river
Would you drown in the river
To find souls of glass
From the town by the river
Hear the screams make you shiver
Do they change your fate
Yes you are a believer
When it rises the river
Sigh press and give birth

And if we give them what they need
Maybe they'll survive
Oh let us praise the holy sea
Maybe they'll survive
So let us give them what they need
And maybe they'll survive

Oh let us praise the holy sea
Maybe they'll survive
And if we give them what they need
Maybe they'll survive
Oh let us praise the holy sea

Maybe they'll survive
So let us give them what they need
And maybe they'll survive
So let us give them what they need
Maybe they'll survive
