Down the River Lyrics by PEABOD

Steps

2014

[Verse 1]
Sitting still in this moment, everything in slow motion
All at once it hits me, I'm here
Time caught up with my mind, I've left the past behind
For once the view from my eyes is clear
Yes and no, it's not perfect, I don't think that I've earned it
But I feel the sun on my face
There's still weight on my skin, but something deep within
Says there's a life out there to chase

[Chorus]
Would You take me down the river, down the river with You?
Let Your current take me further, further into Your truth
You're the way that I've chosen, I don't know where it goes
But Lord, I know that You'll see me through
Would You take me down the river, down the river with You?

[Post-Chorus]
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

[Verse 2]
I could feel it comin', took a step, now I'm runnin'
Faster than I thought I could
I'm runnin' down the river, runnin' away from the shivers
Shakin' them off for some good
I still got all my problems, but I know you can solve 'em
Here I come with hope held high
The river has no measure, take me on an adventure
Lord, will You be my guide?
(Hey!)

[Chorus]
Would You take me down the river, down the river with You?
Let Your current take me further, further into Your truth
You're the way that I've chosen, I don't know where it goes
But Lord, I know that You'll see me through
Would You take me down the river, down the river with You?

[Post-Chorus]
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

[Bridge]
Take me down the river
Take me where You will
Take me down the river
Oh Lord, take me where You will
Would You take me down the river, down the river with You?
Let Your current take me further, further into Your truth

[Chorus]
Would You take me down the river, down the river with You?
Let Your current take me further, further into Your truth
You're the way that I've chosen, I don't know where it goes
But Lord, I know that You'll see me through
Would You take me down the river, down the river with You?

[Post-Chorus]
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah (Yeah)
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah (Down the river)
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah (Yeah, hey)
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
