River

Been traveling these wide roads
For so long
My heart's been far from you
Ten thousand miles gone
Oh, I wanna come near
And give you every part of me
But there's blood on my hands
And my lips aren't clean
In the darkness I remember
Momma's words; reoccur to me
Surrender to the good Lord
And he'll wipe your slate clean
(And I'll say)
Take me to the river
I wanna go
(Take me)
Take me to the river
I wanna go
Dip me in your smooth waters
And I'll go in
As a woman with many crimes
Come up for air
As my sin flow down the Jordan
Oh, I wanna come near
And give you every part of me
But there's blood on my hands
And my lips aren't clean
(So please)
Take me to the river
I wanna go
(Yes I do)
(Take me to the river)
Take me to your river
I wanna know
(I wanna know)
(Please Lord)
Take me to the river
I wanna go
(Oh, take my hand)
Take me to the river
I wanna know
(I wanna know about yah)
(I wanna know all about you)
Take me to the river
I wanna go
(Oh, Jesus)
Take me to the river
I wanna go
(Oh, Take me)
Take me to the river
I wanna go
