Oh black river oh black river come wash over me I'll stay under your rushing water until i come up clean I've heard the healing of your power can make a blind man see oh black river oh black river come wash over me Oh black river i've been standing for too long on your shore in that place i felt the weight of all the hurt i bore but you run dark with the stains from hearts of sinners who've come before oh black river is there room for just one more Oh black river I often wander through the valley of thorns among the thieves beside the whores lives broke and torn would you rise your banks, flood the plains for the lowly and forlorn oh black river drown me here and I will be reborn
