The World Lies Before Us /Reprise/

"The World Lies Before Us (Reprise)" is a song from the Jeltiri musical Amends, written and composed by Creedo the Songsmith. It is immediately preceded by Rilios the Sailor and First's arrival in the Jeltiri coastal village of Seneccam and is a reprise of the earlier song "The World Lies Before Us." It is sung by Rilios, First, and the chorus, consisting of a small band of minstrels.
 

Lyrics

To the tune of "Silver" by the Grey Havens  
[RILIOS]
We’ve been bobbing on waves of silver
 
[FIRST]
Hangin’ on just by a string
 
[RILIOS]
But now golden land’s upon us and
The world lies before us and we’ll sing
 
[CHORUS]
Ohh, ohh
Ohh, ohh
 
We will cross any water, any water
And as we go, our conviction just grows stronger
We’ll one day know all that we can be
To one another and the endless sea
 
[FIRST]
I’ll one day know all that I can be
 
[RILIOS]
I’ll one day know all that I can be
 
[FIRST and RILIOS]
We’ll one day know all that we can be
  [CHORUS]
To one another and the world to be
