The River Lyrics

Take me down to the river

Cleanse my soul

Of all the sins I have made

All the acts against love

And doubt in my name

Take me down to the river

Wash my hands of the hurt

And the anger

For the lies I have told myself

Time and time again

Your arms were wrapped around me

My soul was slowly dying

I felt my heart freeze to icy cold

Your love it lead me blindly

To war with my light hiding

Your mindless words

Suppress my soul

No more second guessing

I found a black feather

On my way back home

I'm not alone anymore

Take me down to the river

Hands on heart I stand and imagine

All the light of the world

Healing this beautiful land

Take me down to the river

Say a prayer for the men and the women

For our children rebuilding this vision

Their hopes and their plans

Your arms were wrapped around me

My soul was slowly dying

I felt my heart freeze to icy cold

Your love it lead me blindly

To war with my light hiding

Your mindless words

Suppress my soul

No more second guessing

I found a black feather

On my way back home

I'm not alone anymore

No more second guessing

I can feel the change of weather

In my bones

And I'm not scared anymore

No more

I'm not scared

I'm not scare anymore

No more

I'm not scared

I'm not scared anymore

No more second guessing

I can feel the change of weather

In my bones
