| The sun is shining the children smiling
| El sol está brillando los niños sonriendo
|
| As they walk along the golden sand
| Mientras caminan por la arena dorada
|
| The chosen people have climbed the steeple
| El pueblo elegido ha subido al campanario
|
| On their way to the promised land
| De camino a la tierra prometida
|
| Across the river away from sorrow
| Al otro lado del río lejos del dolor
|
| And on to freedom where there’s peace of mind
| Y hacia la libertad donde hay paz mental
|
| Someone beside them someone to guide them
| Alguien a su lado alguien que los guíe
|
| On their way to the promised land
| De camino a la tierra prometida
|
| And by the river I’ll be with you all the way
| Y junto al río estaré contigo todo el camino
|
| Break:
| Romper:
|
| And by the river I’ll be with you all the way
| Y junto al río estaré contigo todo el camino
|
| There’s milk and honey it’s always sunny
| Hay leche y miel, siempre hace sol
|
| The people sing with their head in hand
| La gente canta con la cabeza en la mano
|
| And soon their patience will be rewarded
| Y pronto su paciencia será recompensada
|
| And they shall walk in the promised land
| Y caminarán en la tierra prometida
|
| And by the river I’ll be with you all the way
| Y junto al río estaré contigo todo el camino
|
| The sun is shining the children smiling
| El sol está brillando los niños sonriendo

| Mientras caminan por la arena dorada
