OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 1
Circle left
* There's a deep silent river flowing just beyond
And its waters are deep and wide
Well the men star right, roll it one time tonight
Do an allemande left with corner, weave the ring
There's a light at the river, a light at the river
Swing a little girl around and promenade
My Lord will stand and hold in His hand
A light at the river for me
FIGURE Basic, corner progression
Heads (sides) promenade travel halfway around
Come down the middle and square thru go four
Four hands around and then a right & left thru, turn the girl
You veer to the left and then you ferris wheel
Centers square thru 3 hands around you go
You swing the girl around and promenade
My Lord will stand and hold in His hand
A light at the river for me
ALTERNATE LYRICS
* It's as dark as the night, but my eyes see a light
Just down by the riverside
* But the beckoning light leads me on through the night
To the waters where my soul may be cleansed
TAG
Swing her once
A light at the river for me
