Kara Frazier - Mother Lyrics

Mother - Kara Frazier, Sydney St. George


[Verse 1]

Jordan's been calling my name since the day that I was born

This river is beckoning me with a promise to calm the storm

But the waves keeps rising it's hard to keep fighting the night is closing in


[Chorus]

Mother mother mother the tide is rising high

Brother brother brother that river is running wild


[Verse 2]
When the wisdom of my Father falls silently on my deaf ears

And the whisper of my innocence fades with my falling tears


[Chorus x1]


[Bridge]

I can't stand against the wind

I can't steer the ship I'm in

But mother, oh please mother

Won't you show me how to swim?

Wade in the water, wade in the water now child, said God's a-gonna trouble the water

Wade in the water, wade in the water children, God's a-gonna trouble the water


[Chorus x2]


[Outro]

See that one in red

Looks like the one Moses led

See that one in blue

Look like my people coming through
