(feat. M Shadows & Synyster Gates from Avenged Sevenfold)
[Joel]
As I walk through the valley
Of the shadow of LA
The footsteps that were next to me
Have gone their separate ways
I've seen enough now
To know that beautiful things
Don't always stay that way
I've done enough now
To know this beautiful place
Isn't everything they say
I heard that evil comes disguised
Like a city of angels
I'm walking towards the light
Baptized in the river
I've seen a vision of my life
And I wanna be delivered
In the city was a sinner
I've done a lot of things wrong
But I swear I'm a believer
Like the prodigal son
I was out on my own
Now I'm trying to find my way back home
Baptized in the river
I'm delivered
I'm delivered
[Avenged Sevenfold]
You're from a small town
You're gonna grow up fast
Underneath these lights
Down in Hollywood
On the boulevard
The dead come back to life
To the praying Mother
And the worried Father
Let your children go
If they come back
They'll come home stronger
And if they don't
You'll know
[Joel]
They sing that evil comes disguised
Like a city of angels
I'm walking towards the light
Baptized in the river
I've seen a vision of my life
And I wanna be delivered
In the city was a sinner
I've done a lot of things wrong
But I swear I'm a believer
Like the prodigal son
I was out on my own
Now I'm trying to find my way back home
Baptized in the river
I'm delivered
I'm delivered
Baptized in the river (on my own)
Baptized in the river (on my own)
I wanna be delivered (on my own, on my own)
Baptized in the river (on my own)
I wanna be delivered
Baptized in the river (on my own)
I wanna be delivered
Baptized in the river (on my own)
I wanna be delivered
I confess I'm a sinner
I've seen a vision of my life
And I wanna be delivered

Review about The River Simply amazing. | Reviewer: NotToBeTold | 10/25/2007
This song is just one of the good great Christian-sih songs I will listen too/love.
It's amazing.
And it's been stuck in my head all day that I can't keep it out. I keep singing it. Thank GOD, I have a typing class to where I can look up the lyrics and read it off, and as I do, the song plays off through my head. This song is probably one of the most amazing songs of the year, from what I say. Once more, I must say, this song is just epically amazing. Mostly with M. Shadows and Syn playing in the song. The guitaring is just all out AMAZING. And the voice of M Shadows is just enough to fill this song with the rush that you need.
This song, I give a 10/10.
Along with the lyrics, a ten, out of ten.
And the voices, and style of the song.
A 10/10.
about the song teh river performed by good charlotte | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/16/2007
"The River" song is absolutely AMAZING. Everything about it , the lyrics,rhythm and Joel's voice make the song even more cool. ooh and his reference to the 'prodigal son'is his way of telling us that his had enough,staying like this will only hurt even more, so he seeks the light. God bless him, its such a good song, gooo Good Charlotte.
Wow Synyster Gates is probably one of the greatest guitar players ever and M. Shadows also played a(n) important role in this song as well

good charlotte-the river comment | Reviewer: ccaarriiee | 7/4/2007
good charlotte is neither 'emo' nor 'punk' and never were. and you shouldn't say a band 'sucks balls' because they changed they're sound up a bit. this song is really good and has a good message, probably a better message than ANY of their old stuff. it has real depth. i really like it! and A7X cameo is amazing.
This seriously sounds like a Christian, or at least religious song. Prodigal son is in the bible and batized and all that? Was that what Good Charlotte was aiming for?
id just like to say such an awesome song! fucking ace, awesome beat, awesome rythem! But if it wasnt for matt shadows n synyster gates the song wouldnt be as good. Matt shadows has the most amazing voice ever! so i will rate it =]
Song = 10/10
Lyrics = 10/10
