This week's entry for Steemit OpenMic Week 81. This is an original song written by us.
DOWN BY THE RIVER
(Katya Diaz, Chris Hierro)
Down by the river
Walking in grace
Down by the river
Pleading my case
Love right the wrongs
Of damage is done
Wash in the river
But then there was none
Dreamt bout' the river
The river was dry
Wet now with only
The tears that we cry
Nowhere to go
Nowhere we can pray
Down by the river
Is where we will lay
Who will deliver us when all that's sacred is gone
When all is gone?
If I'm born a sinner can you tell me where I belong?
Where do I belong?
Blood only flows
If its through my veins
Bones on the bed of
These dead remains
Starved by the lies
Of those Hopes they sold
Oh Holly water
Traded for gold
Who will deliver us when all that's sacred is gone
When all is gone
If I'm born a sinner can you tell me where I belong
Where do I belong
Who will forgive us when what God gave us is all but gone?
What will carry our sins today
Who will show us the righteous way
Who will deliver us when all that's sacred is gone
When all is gone?
If I'm born a sinner can you tell me where I belong?
Where do I belong?
Bridge:
Try to take it on
Put back all the pieces
That are lost
That are, we are lost
Are we lost now?
Suddenly we sing the songs that we
We Don't believe in
For peace that we're seekin'
Who will deliver us when all that's sacred is gone
When all is gone?
If I'm born a sinner can you tell me where I belong?
Where do I belong?
Who will forgive us
When what God gave us
Is all but gone
Is all but gone?
If I'm born a sinner can you tell me where I belong?
Where do I belong?
Where do I belong?
Where do I belong?
Where do I belong?
