[00:19.21]	I feel the irons on my wrist
[00:21.51]	and lament it’s come to this
[00:23.93]	When they hang me from the gallows tree,
[00:26.53]	“Such as life,” you’ll hear me hiss.
[00:28.38]	I’m not the reddest handed bandit here,
[00:30.45]	but I’m the one who’ll take the fall;
[00:33.25]	This smoking gun’s been smothered by
[00:35.56]	the long arm of the law.
[00:41.07]	The Chaplin says, “The end has started,
[00:42.98]	and your Judgement has begun”
[00:45.48]	Prayers can lead to God’s forgiveness
[00:47.56]	for all the foolish things you’ve done.
[00:49.91]	You’ve got tonight to find some peace of mind
[00:52.72]	before you leave this world.”
[00:55.15]	And I hope and pray that I may
[00:57.40]	never get what I deserve.
[00:59.19]	Take me down to the river,
[01:01.81]	Preacher, take me by the hand,
[01:03.95]	Take me down to the river,
[01:06.25]	mend the soul of a broken man,
[01:08.74]	Drown me in forgiveness,
[01:10.88]	wash these bloody hands of mine,
[01:13.03]	Take me down to one last river, Lord,
[01:15.73]	Let me testify.
[01:20.99]	I believe in God’s benevolence,
[01:23.63]	And I have seen with my own eyes,
[01:25.93]	in the river just outside the gate,
[01:27.98]	Sunday sinners get baptized.
[01:30.27]	And I’ll pray for my redemption,
[01:32.32]	But I’m quite sure that he won’t hear,
[01:34.81]	I’ve never had that watered cross,
[01:37.51]	trickle in my ear.
[01:42.75]	The chaplain’s face it grew sadder,
[01:44.85]	He said “you’ve not been christened, Son?”
[01:47.98]	“No,” I said, and I hung my head,
[01:50.07]	“Is there nothing to be done?
[01:52.03]	If I could get down to that river,
[01:54.28]	Can’t you see how cleansed I’d be?
[01:57.15]	The latest lamb, in God’s hands.
[01:59.29]	And my soul would be set free.”
[02:01.09]	Take me down to the river,
[02:03.43]	Preacher, take me by the hand,
[02:05.62]	Take me down to the river,
[02:07.89]	mend the soul of a broken man,
[02:10.77]	Drown me in forgiveness,
[02:12.54]	wash these bloody hands of mine,
[02:14.78]	Take me down to one last river, Lord,
[02:19.61]	Let me testify.
[02:21.63]	oh You'd better to testify
[02:23.06]	(testify)
[02:54.18]	They take me to the river banks,
[02:56.48]	Two guards and the chaplain.
[02:58.76]	The moonlight shines on the holy tides,
[03:00.77]	My prayers have been answered.
[03:02.92]	I take my sodden walk to Jesus,
[03:05.16]	All piety and grace.
[03:07.86]	The guards release my shackles,
[03:10.19]	But they cannot read my face.
[03:16.04]	The deepest breath that I can take,
[03:18.00]	As I plunge under the water.
[03:20.49]	The chaplain had the kindest ways,
[03:22.60]	But he could have been a whole lot smarter.
[03:25.13]	Two kicks and I’m traveling,
[03:27.13]	Beneath the muddy waters gleam.
[03:29.32]	And by the time I take a second breath,
[03:31.63]	I’m a hundred yards downstream.
[03:33.58]	Take me down to the river,
[03:35.91]	Preacher, take me by the hand,
[03:38.06]	Take me down to the river,
[03:40.70]	mend the soul of a broken man,
[03:43.24]	Drown me in forgiveness,
[03:44.91]	wash these bloody hands of mine,
[03:47.26]	Take me down to one last river, Lord,
[03:49.90]	Let me testify.
[03:56.39]	Take me down to the river,
[03:57.84]	Preacher, take me by the hand,
[03:59.78]	Take me down to the river,
[04:02.08]	mend the soul of a broken man,
[04:04.72]	Drown me in forgiveness,
[04:06.67]	wash these bloody hands of mine,
[04:08.93]	Take me down to one last river, Lord,
[04:11.39]	Let me testify.

[00:19.21]	我感到腕上被缠上枷锁，
[00:21.51]	悲叹这一刻终于到来。
[00:23.93]	当他们将我送上绞刑架，
[00:26.53]	“怎么样的人生！”你听见我如是喟叹。
[00:28.38]	我并非最为邪恶的恶棍，
[00:30.45]	但却不幸落入罗网。
[00:33.25]	法律抓住了铁证，
[00:35.56]	熄灭了冒烟的枪管。
[00:41.07]	牧师说：“末日已经到来；
[00:42.98]	你的审判将要开始。
[00:45.48]	祈祷吧，上帝会原谅
[00:47.56]	你所有的蠢行。
[00:49.91]	在你离开这个世界之前，
[00:52.72]	今晚或能得到些许平静。”
[00:55.15]	我希望并祷告，
[00:57.40]	我不会得到我应得的结局。
[00:59.19]	引导我到那河边，
[01:01.81]	牧师，牵起我的手。
[01:03.95]	将我带到那河边，
[01:06.25]	将我破碎的灵魂修补。
[01:08.74]	浸我于你的宽恕中，
[01:10.88]	将我染血的双手洗净。
[01:13.03]	将我带到最后一条河边，主，
[01:15.73]	让我为我的清白作证。
[01:20.99]	是的，我相信上帝的仁慈，
[01:23.63]	也曾亲眼见过它发生。
[01:25.93]	在门外的那条河边，
[01:27.98]	礼拜日的罪人们正在接受洗礼。
[01:30.27]	我会为我的救赎祈祷，
[01:32.32]	但我确信他不会听到；
[01:34.81]	我亦从未听见过，
[01:37.51]	圣水从十字架上流淌下的声音。
[01:42.75]	牧师的表情变得难过起来，
[01:44.85]	他问：“你没有接受过洗礼吗，孩子？”
[01:47.98]	“没有，” 我说，昂起我的头，
[01:50.07]	“真的无计可施了吗？”
[01:52.03]	“如果我能下到那条河边，
[01:54.28]	“你知道我会变得洁净。
[01:57.15]	“刚刚返回的迷途的羔羊，在上帝的怀抱中，
[01:59.29]	“我的灵魂从此自由。”
[02:01.09]	引导我到那河边，
[02:03.43]	牧师，牵起我的手。
[02:05.62]	将我带到那河边，
[02:07.89]	将我破碎的灵魂修补。
[02:10.77]	浸我于你的宽恕中，
[02:12.54]	将我染血的双手洗净。
[02:14.78]	将我带到最后一条河边，主，
[02:19.61]	让我为我的清白作证。
[02:21.63]	你最好为自己作证
[02:23.06]	（作证）
[02:54.18]	他们将我带到河岸边，
[02:56.48]	由两个警卫和牧师陪伴。
[02:58.76]	月光洒在神圣的潮水上，
[03:00.77]	我的祈祷已灵验。
[03:02.92]	我拖着湿透的步子走向耶稣，
[03:05.16]	虔诚而不失雅态。
[03:07.86]	警卫解除我的镣铐，
[03:10.19]	但他们却无法读懂我所思所想。
[03:16.04]	深吸一口气，
[03:18.00]	我猛然投入水中。
[03:20.49]	牧师对待我的方式非常善良，
[03:22.60]	但他远可以更聪明。
[03:25.13]	在泥泞的水波下，
[03:27.13]	我已然蹬着河水开始我的旅程。
[03:29.32]	当我第二次呼吸时，
[03:31.63]	我早已顺着水流游开百码之外。
[03:33.58]	引导我到那河边，
[03:35.91]	牧师，牵起我的手。
[03:38.06]	将我带到那河边，
[03:40.70]	将我破碎的灵魂修补。
[03:43.24]	浸我于你的宽恕中，
[03:44.91]	将我染血的双手洗净。
[03:47.26]	带我到最后一条河边，主，
[03:49.90]	让我为我的清白作证。
[03:56.39]	引导我到那河边，
[03:57.84]	牧师，牵起我的手。
[03:59.78]	将我带到那河边，
[04:02.08]	将我破碎的灵魂修补。
[04:04.72]	浸我于你的宽恕中，
[04:06.67]	将我染血的双手洗净。
[04:08.93]	将我带到最后一条河边，主，
[04:11.39]	让我为我的清白作证！
