<b>The River</b> by <i>Samantha Crain</i><br />

Hide your children there's trouble around

Preacher, have you heard of the man around town?

Little girls playing in the river

When he finds them the rest makes me shiver

He holds them down where their feet won't reach the ground

And he waits for the struggle to end

Yes he waits for the struggle to end

I'll go find him and save his soul

Lucifer's position has taken its toll

Just one prayer will end the madness

A few words will end the sadness

And I'll search the town until I track him down

And I pray I do the right thing

Yes I pray I'll do the right thing

So he finds the man and he shares with him

He feels guilty for what he's done

I'm sorry you see for these awful deeds

Now what must I do to purge them?

Well my son you must be baptized

If you want to see the Christ

The preacher holds him down where his feet won't reach the ground

And he waits for judgment to come

Yes he waits for the Lord's will to be done
