Your peace is a river, I’m swimming to shore You threw me an apple, I’m chewing on the core I’m treading water, I can see the horizon line Keep my head up, fighting for what’s mine With a bit and a bridle, you can’t make me drink Hold me under now, I’m starting to sink Meet me at the river Meet me at the river Meet me at the river Down by the riverside The wind in my hair, it’s your breath on my face Dancing through a field of Queen Anne’s lace Dig a hole in the ground, that’s where my rest lies Mix up some mud and smear it on my eyes Take a bath in the river, scrub my rotten skin Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, dunk away my sin Meet me at the river Meet me at the river Meet me at the river Down by the riverside Fighting the current, I’m trying to get out Your peace is a river, I’m choking on my doubt My last mouthful of bread, I spit it up at the sky Your body and your blood, even you had to die The mud is your grace, I’m slipping back in I can’t fight anymore, I give up, I give in Meet me at the river Meet me at the river Meet me at the river Down by the riverside Meet me at the river Meet me at the river Meet me at the river Down by the riverside Meet me at the river Meet me at the river Meet me at the river Down by the riverside
