I dream a day that God will surface
To retrieve his nails and open your heart
You'll say you're mine for the ages
Just open your heart

And say I swear on the cross
Can you promise this to the grave
You'll take my name? Can you promise me?

Over seas and over mountains
A thousand years I've waited for her
To say the lines from this day forward
Just open your heart

And say I swear on the cross
Can you promise this to the grave
You'll take my name? Can you promise me?

All this time I've prayed for this day to come true
No one knows how deep the waves we waded through
I wish I could take your hand and make it true
'Cause no one knows how far apart we've stayed to get through
I wish I could take your hand and make it true
'Cause no one knows how far apart we stay to get through

Can you say I swear on the cross
Can you promise that to the grave
You'll take my name? Can you promise me?
