The River

The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
I was living my life completely in line With the ways of the world What I thought was a good time Was tearing me apart, both my heart and soul And I knew something was missing I had searched high and low But I couldn't find the answers To the questions in my mind I knew I needed someone To bring me through this time My soul, it needed cleansing But I didn't know where to turn Right then the Lord reached out to me And then I said... Take me to the river Wash away my sins and cleanse my soul Take me to the river Lord, make me whole I started living my life completely in line With the ways of the Lord I was learning that I could be An influence to those all around And they saw something was missing They came to me for help So I showed them where to turn Right then the Lord reached out to them And then they said... Take me to the river Wash away my sins and cleanse my soul Take me to the river Lord, make me whole Pull me under. Rescue me and bury me Lord, wash away my foolish pride And all the sin I try to hide Destroy deceit and all the lies The things that tear me up inside Rescue me and bury me In the grave that sets me free The blood that brings eternity Will take my life away from me Take the life that I once knew Replace it with a life that's new Show me what I am to do Fill me up with you With your presence, cover me I want others to see Just how great you can be Take me to the river Wash away my sins and cleanse my soul Take me to the river Lord, make me whole Take me to the river Wash away my sins and cleanse my soul Take me to the river Lord, make me whole Pull me under. Rescue me and bury me
