Don't Wave Goodbye (The Bridge)
A young boy asked his father
Can you show me where you work
Where the train meets the river
Can you show me how the draw bridge works
With a gleam in his eye
The father and pride
Walk along the tracks to that place
Little does he know
This will be the last time
He sees his young boy’s face
Oh his only begotten son
His sacrifice
His life for everyone
Everyone
Everyone
There at the junction
They watched the boats go under the bridge
The young boy
He’s overjoyed
As he plays upon the ridge
The father calls
He slips and falls
Into the gears of the mighty machine
He father tried to help him
As he hears the train whistle scream
His only begotten son
His sacrifice
His life for everyone
Everyone
Everyone
Everyone
With tears in his eyes
He tries and tries
He turns to his father
And says it’s alright
I must die
So that they might live
I am the sacrifice
I am the sacrifice
I am the sacrifice
To restore the bridge
Walks on across the tracks
He hears his boy
As he turns his back
He pulls the leaver to the gears
And starts to crush his son
As the whistle draws near
And he hears his son scream
Father why
Why
See the tears
On his face
The train comes and goes
As people smile and wave
Don’t wave goodbye
Don’t wave
Don’t you wave goodbye
With tears in his eyes
He tries and tries
Turns to his father
And says it’s alright
I must die so that they might live
I am the sacrifice
I am the sacrifice
I am the sacrifice
To restore the bridge
With hope in his eyes
He tries and tries
Turns to his father
And says it’s alright
I am the sacrifice to restore the bridge
With hope in his eyes
He tries and tries
Turns to his father
And says it’s alright
I must die so that they might live
I am the sacrifice
I am the sacrifice
I am the sacrifice
To restore the bridge
I must die so that they might live
I am the sacrifice
I am the sacrifice
I am the sacrifice
I am the sacrifice
I am the sacrifice
I am the sacrifice
I must die so that they might live
I am the sacrifice
I am the sacrifice
I am the sacrifice
To restore the bridge
I am the sacrifice
To restore the bridge
About Us:
This world is a dry and weary land.
All around us are people dying for a drink of fresh, new life.
In the Bible, drought and famine were used as a symbol of the lack or withdrawal of God's blessing.
Like the prodigal son and the lost sheep, we have all chosen to leave the safety and security of God's love and favor, enticed by our own lusts and the alluring but empty and deadly deceptions of the enemy of our souls.
We find ourselves lost, alone, broken, hungry, thirsty and on the brink of death.
But none have strayed so far that they cannot return.
Cry out to Him for help and surrender your life back to Him.
He promised He would take you back, always.
"God is a God of awesomeness, and music glorifying Him should be as powerful and majestic as He is." The Rain
And if you want to use any of the instrumental tracks to sing to at your church or other live function, please feel free! We would love that. God inhabits the praise of His people!
Love,
Nick and Lauren
