Fellowship - The Saint Beyond the River

For the saint beyond the river
I will take another step
For to see the final thread of life
Will sow my soul again!
For the saint beyond the river
I will see the face of god
For the saint beyond the river
Carry on!

Memories are brittle at their best
Preserve me through my sword
And all the songs within my chest
If I have any voice that carries
through
I hope it keeps the words I use
Emblazoned on the winds to carry on!

For the saint beyond the river
I will take another step
For to see the final thread of life
Will sow my soul again!
For the saint beyond the river
I will see the face of god
For the saint beyond the river
Carry on!

The eyes of time have stared at me for years...
With half of life to go, I'll pray that
Patience conquers fear
Before the dark becomes a part of me
Please take the light that I can leave
And use it as your strength to carry on!

For the saint beyond the river
I will take another step
For to see the final thread of life
Will sow my soul again!
For the saint beyond the river
I will see the face of god
For the saint beyond the river
Carry on!

I gaze to the stars
That shine beyond the river down below
These saints shine against me
As they always seem to do
For who am I if not the son of
Those I look up to?
I gaze through my past beyond
The pale and dark of night
I hope the light that comes before will
Save these earthbound eyes
But if it won't, I'll still try!

For the saint beyond the river
I will take another step
For to see the final thread of life
Will sow my soul again!
For the saint beyond the river
I will see the face of god
For the saint beyond the river
Carry on!

For the saint beyond the river
I will take another step
For to see the final thread of life
Will sow my soul again!
For the saint beyond the river
I will see the face of god
For the saint beyond the river
Carry on!
