Rivers & Robots - The Bridegroom
[youtube=http://youtu.be/X2azKvWIG14]Genre: Acoustic, Indie, Worship
Originally starting as a solo project by Jonathan Ogden (also the creator of Typographicverses.com), Rivers & Robots are now a four-piece indie worship band based in Manchester, UK. Sounding like Bon Iver and Bombay Bicycle Club joined forces to make a worship song, this track is written from the perspective of Jesus (the Bridegroom) singing to his church (the Bride), on the day they meet face to face. The lyrics on this are so beautifully written and the musicianship so close to perfect, that it is hard not to feel Christ's love flow out of this piece of music.
Lyrics: “Until the day breaks and shadows flee Turn my beloved, and come to me I’ve made a place for you
I have come to the garden To find you here So let me see your face Let me hear your voice For your voice is sweet to me
Do you know that You have ravished my heart? Do you know that You have ravished my heart? Yes, you have ravished my heart With one glance of your eye
Now, the winter has passed The rain has been and gone I come over the hills to say ‘come away with me my dear, away, come away’
We will be, we will be, we will be together We will be, we will be, we will be forever
Would you lift up your eyes to see I am calling you now, to me I have so much more to tell you
All that you really believe inside What you see when you close your eyes I have so much more to show you”
