From the river to the sea

the truth will find you.

It will find us all

on that day.

Like the water that covers the ocean floor

the truth will spread throughout the world.

It will speak to you.

It will speak to us all.

There will be no doubt in our minds

as to the truth

when the final showdown is over

and Hashem’s light shines bright.

The truth will then come knocking at your door.

You will have to let it in,

allow it to enter your home and heart,

obliterate all the lies you’ve believed all along.

The truth seekers will join hands and dance

happy that their time has finally come,

thrilled that truth has finally taken a stand

in the world.

We are waiting for that day;

each day,

each second,

whether we know it or not.

Those of us who believe in truth,

those who think that truth are lies,

or that lies are truth;

deep down, we are all waiting.

We are all ready

for that day to come

so please, Hashem, as you own that truth

bring it down to us today.

We are waiting for the truth to find us

because it’s too hard for us to find the truth.

We need your help

in bringing us that day.
