Lyrics

River

River take me home
To the place I know
Where the guilt and shame and every stain
Is made white as snow
Where the flowers bloom
Where the sky is the only blue in sight
Where the stars do shine
And the moon, illuminates the night

So I’ll work until my hands hurt
I’ll search for every answer
But nothing can fill me like you do
And the seasons keep changing
From snowfall to summer rain but
Somehow it always feels the same

River take me there
Where no one knows despair
Where the sun rays fill the earth and sky
Bring life into the air
When the storms don’t rage
Where the earth won’t shake
And the chains will break
And the chains will break

So I’ll work until my hands hurt
I’ll search for every answer
But nothing can fill me like you do
And the seasons keep changing
From snowfall to summer rain but
Somehow it always feels the same

And I know there’ll be a time and place
Where the river will reflect my face
With tears of joy from out my eyes
When I’ve made it to the other side
Where tears of sadness are no more
The devil’s walked right out that door
It’s in my heart, this I know I’m sure

River take me home
To the place I know
Oh river take me home
Take me home
