Well I've got bills to pay,
and taxmen on my tail.
I just keep praying
That the check's in the mail.
And there are times
it seems that everything's lost,
When I'm blown and I'm tossed,
But then I see.
Between the river and the ravens I'm fed,
between oblivion and blazes I'm led.
So father give me faith,
in providence and grace.
Between the river and the ravens I'm fed,
oh sweet deliverer you lift up my head,
and lead me in your way.
Well I've grown sick and tired
of trying to stand still.
I've learned to let the wind
blow me where it will.
To throw myself into the will of the wave,
how can we ever be brave until we're free.
Between the river and the ravens I'm fed,
between oblivion and blazes I'm led.
So father give me faith,
in providence and grace.
Between the river and the ravens I'm fed,
oh sweet deliverer you lift up my head,
and lead me in your way.
And though I'm walking through the valley
of the shadow of death
and evil's all around,
it's coming from the right and the left.
I trust that I will see your glory above,
oh your banner of love, flies over me.
Between the river and the ravens I'm fed,
between oblivion and blazes I'm led.
So father give me faith,
in providence and grace.
Between the river and the ravens I'm fed,
oh sweet deliverer you lift up my head,
and lead me in your way.
