Intro: Bb Bb Oh, the desert dreams of a river F Eb that will run down to the sea Bb like my heart longs for an ocean F Bb to wash down over me. Eb Bb Oh, won't you take me from this valley Eb F to that mountain high above? Bb F I will pray, pray, pray Gm Eb until I see your smiling face. Bb F I will pray, pray, pray Bb to the one I love. [same chord progression throughout the song] Oh, the outcast dreams of acceptance, just to find pure love's embrace like an orphan longs for his mother. May you hold me in your grace. Won't you take me from this valley to that mountain high above? I will pray, pray, pray until I see your smiling face. I will pray, pray, pray to the one I love. Oh, the caged bird dreams of a strong wind that will flow 'neath her wings. Like a voice longs for a melody, oh, Jesus carry me. Won't you take me from this valley to that mountain high above? I will pray, pray, pray until I see your smiling face. I will pray, pray, pray to the one I love. I will pray, pray, pray until I see your smiling face. I will pray, pray, pray to the one I love.
