Samantha Crain - The River lyrics

Hide your children there's trouble around Preacher, have you heard of the man around town? Little girls playing in the river When he finds them the rest makes me shiver He holds them down where their feet won't reach the ground And he waits for the struggle to end Yes he waits for the struggle to end I'll go find him and save his soul Lucifer's position has taken its toll Just one prayer will end the madness A few words will end the sadness And I'll search the town until I track him down And I pray I do the right thing Yes I pray I'll do the right thing So he finds the man and he shares with him He feels guilty for what he's done I'm sorry you see for these awful deeds Now what must I do to purge them? Well my son you must be baptized If you want to see the Christ The preacher holds him down where his feet won't reach the ground And he waits for judgment to come Yes he waits for the Lord's will to be done
