Tell me what you mean by

Lovin' me oh higher

And show me what those days are

You wanna give me what you got

I must confess I got my dreams

I got my ideals

Somethin' to believe in

Careful how you lead me

Oh you know I'm just a lonely soul sister

Searchin' for it mister

I got my role, my role



Now take me to your river

And lay me in your water

And preach to me

Tell me why I need your love

Why I got to have your love

Justify your love

Make me a believer



Tell me what you mean by

I ain't livin' right yet

And tell me 'gain when you wanna

You want I'll take on this thing

I got two fists I got my dreams

I got my genius something to believe in

Careful how you treat me

Oh you know I'm just a lonely soul sister

Searchin' for it mister

I got my role, my role



Now take me to your river

And lay me in your water

And preach to me

Tell me why I need your love

Why I got to have your love

Justify your love



Now take me to your river

And lay me in your water

And preach to me

Tell me why I need your love

Why I got to have your love

Justify your love

Make me a believer



So you say one day you'll be my love, my life, my guardian in white

My pillar of strength, I'll call you home, my rock, my stone



Take me to your river

And lay me in your water

And preach to me

Tell me why I need your love

Why I got to have your love

Justify your love



Now take me to your river

And lay me in your water

And preach to me

Tell me why I need your love

Why I got to have your love

Justify your love

Make me a believer



Justify your love
