CROSSING RIVER'S

Came along a bridgeÂ
There's a man he standsÂ
Holds out his handsÂ
He says pay the river man
Not gold but silverÂ
Here's a dime for your time
Scared alone and lostÂ
Knowing this river I must crossÂ
Upon the fairyÂ
Stared behind as we came acrossÂ
What would I findÂ
Came to a prairieÂ
Somethings wrong somethings not rightÂ
There's a road I seeÂ
It's dark has no lightÂ
Walked along the wayÂ
There's another river to crossÂ
This time there's no manÂ
But a woman draped in whiteÂ
Her eyes blind has no sightÂ
She glows in the nightÂ
She said you must have paid the river man silver not goldÂ
Come along take my handÂ
I'll bring you acrossÂ
I wonder how does she know
She said childÂ
I knowÂ
Just cause I'm blindÂ
I can see further then your mind would everÂ
Your not living but deadÂ
The rivers are full of souls that are lostÂ
Who didn't pay who couldn't come across
It's hells hole can't you tell by the smell
no longer living not even alive
They cry
Come alongÂ
Your guardian angel that's meÂ
I'll take you to a place you'll forever beÂ
Safely
Don't look down just follow me
Dont look back because that was and will never be
You are now at home many
Rivers you've crossed
Many times you have been lostÂ
But searched for the LordÂ
You've carried your cross
Made it acrossÂ
Never alone scared are lost
Your home where you'll for ever be
You paid the river manÂ
Not gold but silverÂ
And you've found me
Come come along
And I'll bring you home.
Where God is waiting patientlyÂ
