River
Seek good, not evil, follow the Lord and live
God will be with you, just as you say He is
Clean up your courtrooms, and all your prisons too
Come join the mourners, and God will weep with you
Let justice roll like a river, roll like a river
Come and deliver, roll like a river
Roll like a river, roll like a river
Come and deliver, roll like a river
He will stand with us, to liberate the poor
Nothing can stop us, our help is from the Lord
Let justice roll like a river, roll like a river
Come and deliver, roll like a river
Roll like a river, roll like a river
Come and deliver, roll like a river
Hey, I am made of planets
Oceans and stardust and it's not that far from us
My skin's geology it got its scars from us
Pain rivers and road and deep chasms and depressions
Made of cliff divers and the rocks that they stand on
And abuse of man and beast made resources increase
Came from the least you make treasures out of trash
Understand the land in a way that came from pain
Your loss is my gain and in the end, it's not equal
I appeal to the resilience of my people
Remain calm and watch nations rage
I've seen the oceans part by the ancient of days
And it rolls
God will be with you, just as you say He is
Clean up your courtrooms, and all your prisons too
Come join the mourners, and God will weep with you
Let justice roll like a river, roll like a river
Come and deliver, roll like a river
Roll like a river, roll like a river
Come and deliver, roll like a river
He will stand with us, to liberate the poor
Nothing can stop us, our help is from the Lord
Let justice roll like a river, roll like a river
Come and deliver, roll like a river
Roll like a river, roll like a river
Come and deliver, roll like a river
Hey, I am made of planets
Oceans and stardust and it's not that far from us
My skin's geology it got its scars from us
Pain rivers and road and deep chasms and depressions
Made of cliff divers and the rocks that they stand on
And abuse of man and beast made resources increase
Came from the least you make treasures out of trash
Understand the land in a way that came from pain
Your loss is my gain and in the end, it's not equal
I appeal to the resilience of my people
Remain calm and watch nations rage
I've seen the oceans part by the ancient of days
And it rolls
