[Verse 1] Sunrise paints the sky in wild electric gold, Every shade of mercy brighter than I’ve ever known. I was walkin’ in the shadows, chained by my own fear, Then Jesus whispered softly, “Child, I’m right here.” [Pre-Chorus] The world starts spinnin’ in a holy melody, Grace like starlight flowing over me— [Chorus] [big gospel lift with choir] 🎵 I’m ridin’ on the river where the Spirit sets me free, Country roads to heaven, Lord, You walkin’ next to me. Colors of Your kingdom flowin’ wild and endlessly, Oh-oh, Heaven’s colors shine in me! 🎵 [Verse 2] Boots upon the red clay, heart upon the throne, Every step I’m takin’, I know I ain’t alone. Voices in the valley, angels hummin’ low, Turn my doubt to flowers in the garden of my soul. [Pre-Chorus] Every heartbeat’s poundin’ like a gospel tambourine, Love’s the sweetest fire I’ve ever seen— [Chorus] 🎵 I’m ridin’ on the river where the Spirit sets me free, Country roads to heaven, Lord, You walkin’ next to me. Colors of Your kingdom flowin’ wild and endlessly, Oh-oh, Heaven’s colors shine in me! 🎵 [Bridge] [Psychedelic gospel] Echoes of forever rollin’ through my veins, Rainbow hallelujahs fallin’ like the rain. Chains dissolve in sunlight, fear turns into flame, Jesus is my compass, I’ll never be the same. [Choir repeats “Never be the same, never be the same” with layered psychedelic reverb] [Final Chorus ] [modulation & gospel choir] 🎵 I’m ridin’ on the river where the Spirit sets me free, Country roads to heaven, Lord, You walkin’ next to me. Colors of Your kingdom flowin’ wild and endlessly, Oh-oh, Heaven’s colors shine in me! 🎵 *[Choir echoes: “Shine in me, shine in me…”]
