Lyrics: [Intro — whisper, heartbeat, three knocks] Lantern Keepers… gather close. By the river… let the water speak. Trailblazers! [Verse 1 — raspy male lead] The fact of the manna—how You fed them in the wild, Mi need that bread from Heaven, let it wake this weary child. Break the yoke, hey ya, let the old weight go, Living water, Yeshua, wash me head to toe. Your Word spreads love where a wounded heart can hear, When a bond that held me breaks, let me breathe again, no fear. Milk and honey, sweeter than the sweetest tea— I ask, “How’d You send this kind of love to someone like me?” [Pre-Chorus — female response] Slowly, slowly, let the moment stay, Let the river take the hurt away. I’m right here, Lord, with my lantern in view— Let me feel this love, let me be made new. [Chorus — duet] Manna mi need, let the river run deep, Milk and honey, wake my heart from sleep. Yeshua, wash me, head to toe— Love me slowly; don’t let this moment go. Sweet on my lips, light in my eyes, I’m living this breath while I wait for the skies. Manna mi need, let the whole world know: The river keeps flowing, and the love still flows. [Verse 2 — male lead] Take a walk in di nature, let the green calm my mind, Pick a leaf, roll it like paper, let the thoughts unwind. One slow toke by the tree, hear the wind through the leaves, I’m soaking in the stillness, letting my heart find peace. A daydream placed inside me felt sacred, felt divine, I run that promise back and let it play one more time. The breeze moves through the branches; the promise holds its ground, I hear love in the ebb and flow, a quiet, steady sound. [Pre-Chorus — female response] Slowly, slowly, let the moment stay, Let the river take the hurt away. I’m right here, Lord, with my lantern in view— Let me feel this love, let me be made new. [Chorus — duet] Manna mi need, let the river run deep, Milk and honey, wake my heart from sleep. Yeshua, wash me, head to toe— Love me slowly; don’t let this moment go. Sweet on my lips, light in my eyes, I’m living this breath while I wait for the skies. Manna mi need, let the whole world know: The river keeps flowing, and the love still flows. [Verse 3 — male lead] I bless the road behind me, all the hard days I cried; You gave me back the sunshine, put a lantern in my life. No one knows the day or hour, so I’ll live the days I’m given, Trailblazing, lantern blazing, letting love light up the living. Till Thy Kingdom come, I’ll keep this hope alive; When the Bridegroom calls His children, let our lamps be burning bright. I’m not rushing past this moment for the finish line ahead— I’m learning how to live in love with every step I tread. [Bridge — female lead, building to duet] Bring me that good loving, sweet as honey on my lips, Hold me in the now; let me feel the tenderness. I say, “I don’t deserve one thing”—grace says, “Just receive.” Wrap me in a holy love that lets my tired heart breathe. Show these tired eyes the light; let me stay inside the view. Make the whole world bright with love, and let me shine there too. [Final Chorus — full duet] Manna mi need, let the river run deep, Milk and honey, wake my heart from sleep. Yeshua, wash me, head to toe— Love me slowly; don’t let this moment go. Sweet on my lips, light in my eyes, I’m living this breath while I wait for the skies. Manna mi need, let the whole world know: The river keeps flowing, and the love still flows. [Outro — soft duet] By the river, I remember. Through the waiting, love remains. One kiss from the promise, one light in the dark— I know what I miss; I know You know my heart. Slowly… so slowly… Milk and honey on my lips. Trailblazers… Lantern Keepers… Till the Kingdom come.
