Staring at the river
The river oh so deep
Praying to the Lord
My soul to keepTrying to hang on
I don't wanna throw it away
I didn't want to leave
But you didn't want to stayGive it up to love
Let love have its way
Love lead me on
To a brighter daySitting here thinking
With my head in my hands
I don't want to do wrong
I just want to be a manI see the sun rise
And I see it when it sets
Staring down lonesome road girl
But I don't see you yet woo LordGive it up to love
Let love have its way
Love lead me on
To a brighter day
Come onWe must move on
Wherever the road might lead
Sometimes we may cry
We may fall down to our kneesBut keep your mind wide open
And pray every now and then
Open up your heart
And let love be your friendI don't want to do no wrong Lord
But it's kind of hard to do what's right
Trying- trying to hold on my Lord
Lord I'm trying to stand up like a manAnd I know I know I'm tired
Woo but I'm trying to do the best that I can
And I don't mean I don't to be crying
Woo I just need
I just need a helping hand
Somebody ought to help me right nowGive it up to love
Let love have its way
Love lead me on
To a brighter dayI heard him say
Give it up to love
Let love have its way
Love lead me on
To a brighter dayEverybody say
Give it up to love
Let love have its way
Love lead me on
To a brighter dayEverybody say
Give it up to love
Let love have its way
Love lead me on
To a brighter day Lord
