Lyrics

Been travelling 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 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 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 (Oh, 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 (Oh, Jesus) Take me to the river I wanna go (Oh, Take me) Take me to the river I wanna go
