River by Jessi Alexander Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Where do our prayers go
When we're on our knees?
If the eyes on the sparrow
Why do we feel unseen?
Oh, eventually

[Chorus]
We're all going on down that river
The sun's gonna shine
On 'round the bend
The tears that we cry
Won't be remembered
Cheer up, my friend
We're all gonna get on down that river

[Verse 2]
How many dark days
Must we have to face?
And how many heartbreaks
Must test our faith?
Oh, all I know
Is we gotta have faith
[Chorus]
'Cause wе're all going on down that river
The sun's gonna shinе
On 'round the bend
Tears that we cry
Won't be remembered
Oh, cheer up, my friend
We're all gonna get on down that river
Yeah, cheer up, my friend
We're all gonna get on down that river
