River

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Come to you, river

I will come to you, river

I will come to you, river

Come to you, river

(Wash my soul)

I will come to you, river

(Wash my soul)

I will come to you, river

(Wash my soul again)

Carry away my dead leaves

Let me baptize my soul with the help of your waters

Sink my pains and complains

Let the river take them, river drown them

My ego and my blame

Let me baptize my soul with the help of your waters

Those old means, so ashamed

Let the river take them, river drown them

I will come to you, river

I will come to you, river

I will come to you, river

Come to you, river

(Wash my soul)

I will come to you, river

(Wash my soul)

I will come to you, river

(Wash my soul again)

Carry away my old leaves

Let me baptize my soul with the help of your waters

Sink my pains and complains

Let the river take them, river drown them

My ego and my blame

Let me baptize my soul with the help of your waters

Those old means, so ashamed

Let the river take them, river drown them

Come to you, river

I will come to you, river

I will come to you, river

Come to you, river

(Wash my soul)

I will come to you, river

(Wash my soul)

I will come to you, river

(Wash my soul again)
