River Lyrics - Singles - Jane Marczewski

On the first blank page of a story 

Where no feet have walked before 

The stones Ill step are staring at me 

Drawing footprints toward the shore 

Furrowed brow on the bank of a river 

Watching all the fools float away 

Upon their whim and swift obedience 

To whatever the culture may say 

But I, I, I will not be swept away 

When the old dam breaks Ill be ready 

As the deep cries out to deep 

And the breakers of tribulation and trial wash over me 

But I, I, I will not be swept away 

When the old dam breaksand it will 

Ill be ready as the deep cries out 

As the white waters come, Ill be strong, Ill be strong 

As the river flows on 

I, I, I will not be swept away 

I, I, I will not be swept away
