Exploring themes of renewal and spiritual cleansing, Jordan Feliz's track uses the metaphor of a river to illustrate the transformative power of faith. The river symbolizes a place where individuals can leave their burdens and emerge refreshed and purified. This idea is reinforced through the repetitive chorus that invites listeners to go "down to the river to pray" and be "washed by the water," suggesting a baptismal act that leads to rebirth and redemption. The lyrics emphasize how this spiritual journey impacts one's life, turning past pains into joyous liberation. Overall, the song celebrates the profound impact of embracing faith, depicted as a current that revives and brings new life.
The River
Lyrics
I know a place where we can go
To lay the troubles down eating your soul
I know a place where mercy flows
Take the stains make you whiter than snow
Like a tide, it is rising up deep inside a current that moves and makes you come alive
Living water that brings the dead to life, oh-oh-oh-oh
We're going down to the river
Down to the river, down to the river to pray
Let's get washed by the water
Washed by the water and rise up in amazing grace
Let's go down, down, down to the river (You will leave changed)
Let's go down, down, down to the river (Never the same)
I've seen it move in my own life
Took me from dusty roads into paradise
All of my dirt, all of my shame
Drowned in the streams that've made me born again
Like a tide, it is rising up deep inside a current that moves and makes you come alive
Living water that brings the dead to life, oh-oh-oh-oh
We're going down to the river
Down to the river, down to the river to pray
Let's get washed by the water
Washed by the water and rise up in amazing grace
Let's go down, down, down to the river (You will leave changed)
Let's go down, down, down to the river (Never the same)
Let's go down
Let's go down
Let's go down
We're going down to the river
Down to the river, down to the river to pray
Let's get washed by the water
Washed by the water and rise up in amazing grace
Let's go down, down, down to the river (You will leave changed)
Let's go down, down, down to the river (Never the same)
Oh down
Oh oh
Gotta go, gotta go, gotta go down in amazing grace
Let's go down, down, down to the river
Gotta go, gotta go, gotta go down in amazing grace
