The river is deep

The river is deep

 

The river is deep, oh yeah

itís flooding my soul

And I can see why itís rising so high

Under your sure controlÖ.

 

The river runs deep the river runs wide

And in its holy currents I can now ride

As Iím overcome and go with the flow

Heís the river I know.

 

The river runs wide, the river runs deep

The river wash over my soul it will keep

As I flow along in the currnts so strong

He gives a song

 

Life is a river, itís not a lake

And as it flows, all inÝ itís path it will take

If we try to confine it, the walls it will break

Hi svessel our heart is bursting apart

Until it floods our fallow grounds

And we know what it is live as we drown

 

Sink a well in this place

In life and in grace

In health and in peace

And to know sweet release

 

Flow free, Flow free, Flow free

My life flow to eternity

Flow free, Flow free, Flow free

Open my eyes so I can see

Whatís flowing through the heart of me.
