A song of repentance
Anytime I wander off the narrow road, nothing good comes to pass
I find myself bearing a very heavy load, and the separation's bad.
Foolish man that I am, when will I ever learn? You cannot serve two
masters in this world...it's the surest way to burn.
But you drop a line to me in the nick of time, provide a way for my return
The purest love, reigning from above, there's another lesson learned and another stripe I've earned...
Take me down to the water and wash me clean, take me down to the river and baptize me, take me under your wing and shelter me...take me down to the water and wash me clean...
