Jordan

Olubukola Oladokun

They drowned me in the Jordan
When they tried to wash me clean
They got the stains out
But now it's too damn hard to breathe
They told me he's a good Lord
As they tied shackles to my feet
They drowned me in the Jordan
And then they walked away from me

I washed up on the shores alone
In a tattered wedding gown
Disillusioned and heart hardened
Everything I'd known had let me down, down, down
And that is where you found me
Grace and whiskey on your breath
You pulled me back on my feet
And taught me how to dance again

And now we're building our own promised land
On this new ground which we stand
God bless the work of our hands
And make good on our plans
'Cause now I've found love there's no turning back

oh, oh, oh, oh

I don't feel
So young now
Gave the best years of my life a way
I tried to build an institution
Instead of trying to keep the faith
But here in the wild
You Loved me though I was not lovely or deserving
You Kissed the curse from my lips
And taught them to rejoice again

And now we're building our own promised land
On this new ground which we stand
God bless the work of our hands
And make good on our plans
'Cause now I've found love there's no turning back

Now I've found love there's no turning back
