India Arie - River Rise lyrics

rate me

There was always

A power I could feel

It was guidance to tell me the way to go

But nowadays I feel like can't hear that voice

I've been flying blind

I need you to come and be my eyes. (be my eyes)

River Rise

Carry me back home

(I cannot remember the way)

River rise

Carry me back home

(I surrender today)

I was always

A charmed flower child

I would sit for hours

And listen to the sky

But nowadays I feel like I don't have that choice

I've been looking down in desperation

I need you to be my inspiration yeah

(My inspiration)

River rise

Carry me back home

(I cannot remember the way)

River rise

Carry me back home

(I surrender today)

I bow down

And I humble myself

I can't do this

Lord I need your help

All the material things

They feel like chains

If you're not here beside me

You're the reason I see

(Help me to remember the way)

I surrender

Help me to remember

Only you can show me

(Only you can show me the way)

I surrender

(I surrender today)

You are the only way

Lord, I need you.
