Lyrics
The River
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Everyone is broken and in need of a Savior
So He came and was broken for the mocker, for the shamed
Still our eyes are blinded by the culture, by the lies
We can't see that we're filthy, we're fallen and so dry
But He invites us
Can you hear Him say?
He invites us
Hear Him call your name
Chorus
Welcome to the river
Come drink, come wade
Come find your very life
Welcome to the river of God
Where your brokenness is washed away
Everywhere is the sorrow and the pain of empty living
You can see it; look in their eyes, all the hopelessness of the world
But look closer, He is right there in the midst of every fear
Living water is the offer, restoration is the call
And He invites us
Can you hear Him say?
He invites us
Hear Him call your name
Chorus
Find your healing
Find your freedom
In the river of God
Your healing here
Your freedom here
In the river of God
Chorus
