about

Down To That River is my Pagan attempt at gospel. I don't like intermediaries between me and the Divine. Love Andrew's organ-ic divinity bubbling through this. Perfection.

lyrics

I’m goin’ down to that river
I’m gonna shed my old skin
I’m goin’ down to that river
I’m gonna shed my old skin
I’m gonna wash
In that water
Until I’m new again

I will bathe in that river
Until I crawl out on the bank
I’m gonna bathe in that river
Until I crawl out on the bank
I will swaddle myself
In fine woven linens
And then I’ll give thanks

I’m goin’ down to that river
I will plant my garden there
I’m goin’ down to that river
I will plant my garden there
From seeds
Within my body
And water from my tears
