Larry Norman - Down The Line lyrics

rate me

The river is deep, and the river is wide

But I'm gonna cross over when I see my ride.

'Cause I got a home on the other side

When the time has come I'll close my eyes

Shut out that world with all its lies

And I'll lay me down until I rise.

When I awake I'll see his face

Of this world's tears there'll be no trace

He'll take us to a better place.

My dearest friends keep up the fight,

Resist the darkness, and do what's right

And when you stand up, walk in the light.

This world is filled with sorrow

There's trouble everywhere

But do not be dismayed

Nor weak and in despair

He knows all that has happened

And what you're going through

You're covered in his love

And he won't let go of you

Speak from your heart and let it shine

And let God's will be done, not thine

So I can see you once again on down the line.

The river is deep, and the river is wide

I'm gonna cross over when I see my ride.

'Cause I got a home on the other side

Speak from your heart and let it shine

And let God's will be done, not thine

So I can see you once again on down the line.
