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.
If you're hurting, i'll take your pain
If your life is dry and weary, i'll bring the rain
If you're searching, then search no more
If you're drifting on an ocean, i'll be the shore
I see the scars that you hide
I've kept the tears that you've cried, they were not in vain
And every prayer that you've prayed
I have treasured and saved, my love will never change
If you're looking for the river
That runs with healing water
Bring yourself to me
And i will wash you in an endless peace
I'm your saviour,
And i'll save you
Tonight
If you're blinded by
The darkness, i'll be the light
If you're hopeless, i'll be your faith
If you're lost, i'll
Lead the way
Chorus
