Fire on the river

There's a fire on the river tonight
And its burning like a quiet candle light
And its taking all our sins
All our worries and fears, its purging
There's a fire on the river tonight

And the river runs through the land tonight
Its like the blood in the hand of the right
And it will flow through the fat
Through the body and the flesh
There's a fire on the river tonight

And all these dancing flames
Are like tricks of light on the brain
Now you see the sleight of hand
Make the fire disappear
But the river will send another wave
And then the vision is washed clear
There's a fire on the river tonight
