River - Kara Johnstad

River Lyrics

Sometimes it scares me
How fast these waters rushing
Sometimes it stuns me
How the people keep hushing me down
Sometimes Im frightened
To let the waters take me
I pray the rocks wont break me
But then
I feel sweet love
Like a river
Pouring from above
And I know, yes I know
This is the river called lifeSometimes I hesitate
I just put my big toe in
Sometimes I am so brave
I jump right in for a long, long swim
Sometimes the waterfalls they
Tumble me right under

Ears are filled with thunder
So scared, yet I feel sweet love
Like a river, pouring from aboveAnd I know yes I know
This is the river called lifeTake me to the River
Take me to the River
Take me to the River
The River called Life
