Lyrics
Oh Lord take me down to the river
Oh Lord take me down to the river and make me whole
I think of how many time I made a mess of me
When it’s obvious You always had the recipe
For the best of me and now I guess I be
On my knees and I’m beggin now for less of me
When I see that everything is falling through
That’s when I know that I need so much more of You
More peace more love and just more truth
Less of me more of Ya now in all I do
Got a whole lot of baggage that I’m sortin’ through
That I’m draggin all around like it’s portable
It’s draggin me down I think it’s horrible
Feeling lost but I’m found when I call to You
Oh Lord take me down to the river and wash my soul
Oh Lord take me down to the river and make me whole
More of You less of me
I need more of You
I need more of You less of me
Give me more of You
More of You and really so much less of me
I died to myself and said rest in peace
That’s when I heard Ya say that you can rest in me
And think about all the things that your blessed to see
Like my wife and my kids and my family
The life that I live, so glad I’m free
So when the rain falls You are the canopy
That means when I got it all or a can of peas
When I hit the wall You said look to me
I said every time I fall “I wish you took the lead”
But I’m learning slowly who I ought to be
Cuz if Your love is the ocean, wash over me
Oh Lord take me down to the river and wash my soul
Oh Lord take me down to the river and make me whole
More of You less of me
I need more of You
I need more of You less of me
Give me more of You
Oh Lord take me down to the river
Oh Lord take me down to the river and make me whole
More of You less of me
I need more of You
I need more of You less of me
Give me more of You
