River (feat. Deborah Joy Winans)

Been travelin' 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

(Take me to the river)

I wanna know

Dip me in your smooth waters

And I'll go in

As a woman with many crimes

Come up for air

As my sin flows down the Jordan

Oh, I wanna come near you 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 (Take me to the river)

I wanna know, I wanna know

I wanna know

Please, Lord

(Take me to the river)

I wanna go

Take my hand

Take me to the river

I (Wanna know)

I wanna know about ya

I wanna know all about you

Take me (Take me to the river)

I wanna go

Jesus

Take me to the river

I wanna go

Take me (Take me to the river)

I wanna go
