I dream a day that god will surface

Overseas and over mountains

Just open your heart

[Verse]
A# G Dm C
All this time I've prayed for this day to come true,
A# G Dm C
'Cause no one knows how deep the waves we waded through.
A# G Dm C
I wish I could take your hand and make it true.
A# G Dm C
'Cause no one knows how far apart we stayed to get through.
A# G Dm C
I wish I could take your hand and make it true.
A# G Dm C
'Cause no one knows how far apart we stay to get through.
[Chorus]

Can you say
G Dm
"I swear on the cross"

Can you promise this

to the grave

you'll take my name
C
can you promise me?
