Been traveling these white 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 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, I wanna know))
((Please Lord))
Take me to the river,
I wanna go.
((Ooooh, 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.
((Ooh, Jesus))
Take me to the river,
I wanna go.
((Oooh, Take me))
Take me to the river,
I wanna go.
