THE RIGHTEOUS SIDE (Southern Gospel)
THE RIGHTEOUS SIDE

I been down that road, by the river
I seen evil on a distant shore
But I did not swim that River of Sin
And I stayed on the righteous side

I’ve been close to the edge of the water
I shook hands with the Devil, near his home
But I saw the line, God drew as a sign
To stay on the righteous side

Stay on the righteous side
Separating the wrong from the right
And follow the Man with the world in His hands
And stay on the righteous side

Once I was lost in times of trouble
Found myself close to that edge
But I did not swim that River of Sin
And I stayed on the righteous side

Stay on the righteous side
Separating the wrong from the right
Then follow the Man with the world in His hands
And stay on the righteous side
