Left It In The River Jamie MacDonald

“Left It In The River” Lyrics

 

I had burdens on my shoulders all my life

I tried and tried to leave ‘em all behind

But freedom’s one thing I could never find

 

I said a prayer from the banks of a river

God met me there showing me something better

 

My life was changed

When I stepped into the water

Ain’t seen my chains

Since I gave ‘em to the Father

Hallelujah I’ve been delivered

Where is my guilt?

Where is my shame?

I left it in the river (river), oh

I left it in the river (river), oh

 

Now there’s nothing that take this joy I’ve found

He raised me up and I ain’t coming down

He washed me clean and now there ain’t no doubt

He turned it all around

 

I said a prayer from the banks of a river

God met me there showing me something better

I left my wrongs at the bottom of the river

I said so long, said goodbye forever

 

My life was changed

When I stepped into the water

Ain’t seen my chains

Since I gave ‘em to the Father

Hallelujah I’ve been delivered

Where is my guilt?

Where is my shame?

I left it in the river (river) oh

I left it in the river (river) oh

I left it in the river (river) oh

I left it in the river (river) oh

I left it in the river
