i give you to his heart

the wind is blowing down the quiet river

a shining road that carries you alone. baby boy my love will last forever. if you're to live

i must give you up to god. i know our god will guide

protect and keep you. teach you faith and hold you by the heart. though your mother's heart is broken by your leaving

her father knows just who he is and who you are. i wish that life wasn't always ending up this way

with heaven's love at stake and hell to pay. but you in god's loving plan might be the missing part. you must live. so i give you to his heart. the wind is blowing down the silent river

a shining road that leaves me all alone. a life for you's worth losing you forever. some day we'll stand in god's fair land

forever home. i wish that life wasn't always ending up this way

with heaven's love at stake and hell to pay. but you in god's loving plan might be the missing part. you must live. so i give you to his heart. i wish that life wasn't always ending up this way

with heaven's love at stake and hell to pay. but you in god's loving plan might be the missing part. you must live. so i give you to his heart.
