You can call yourself conservative, call yourself obsessive
Call yourself moderate, liberal or progressive
You can call yourself a Christian, Muslim or a Jew
An' claim to believe everything in your bible is true
But if you want peace like a river to roll down in your soul
Gotta be a little bold, want Jesus to forgive you
You can hesitate, meditate, levitate, hallucinate
An' try every single lie someone says is true
But if you want peace like a river to roll down in your soul
Gotta be a little bold, want Jesus to forgive you
You can claim to be a scientist, have a philosophy that's a little odd
Strut around on campus grounds, pretendin' somehow, there ain't no God
Or, you can go to church on Sunday, go to work on time Monday
An' do your best to do what you think you're supposed to do
But if you want peace like a river to roll down in your soul
Gotta be a little bold, want Jesus to forgive you
Yeah, there's good news for every sinner who ever wanted to be free
Just ask Jesus to forgive you and see if God helps you believe we can take it easy
Now, you can speculate, moderate, medicate, self-educate
An' do everything someone claims is good for you
But if you want peace like a river to roll down in your soul
Gotta be a little bold, want Jesus to forgive you
Yeah, gotta be a little bold an' keep on wantin' him, to forgive you
