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 ya
Every part of me
But there's blood on my hands
And my lips aren't clean

In my darkness I remember
Momma's words reoccur to me
"Surrender to the good Lord
And he'll wipe your slate clean"

Take me to your river
I wanna go
Oh, go on
Take me to your river
I wanna know

Tip me in your smooth waters
I go in
As a man with many crimes
Come up for air
As my sins flow down the Jordan

Oh, I wanna come near and give ya
Every part of me
But there's blood on my hands
And my lips aren't clean

Take me to your river
I wanna go
I wanna go
Go on
Take me to your river
I wanna know

I wanna go
I wanna know
I wanna go (wanna go, wanna go)
Mayba I wanna know
Wanna know
I wanna...

Take me to your river
I wanna go
Lord
Take me to your river
I wanna know
