I think the main theme of the song is that life can be difficult sometimes and when we face these tribulations, it's best to ask God for guidance and direction.
I think there is also a reference to Elijah from the Bible. There is a story where Elijah had to drink water from a brook and ravens came and fed him.
I believe the lyrics of the chorus are actually:
Between the river and the ravens I'm fed
Between oblivion and the places i've been
