I Go To The River

Ray Boltz


I have walked in a garden 
The morning after the rain 
I have watched in silent wonder 
As everything changed 
Oh, what a gift from the Father 
Is the Water of Life 
Like a river that flows 
Deep in my soul 
It's from an endless supply 

CHORUS(1): 
Where do I go when I'm thirsty and dry 
I go to the river and I always find 
Rest for my soul 
Peace for my mind 
I go to the river 

When Jesus prayed in the garden 
His brow was furrowed with pain 
And what appeared to be drops of blood 
Were falling down like the rain 
He found strength for the journey 
He found it down on His knees 
And where He knelt a river flows 
And it flows for you and me 

CHORUS(1) 

CHORUS(2): 
What do I do when I'm covered with stains 
I go to the river and I wash them away 
Everything's new 
Everything's changed 
I go to the river 

It's a river of healing 
It's a river of faith 
It's a river of gladness 
It's a river of grace 
It's a river of mercy 
It's a river of love 
It's a river of freedom 
It's a river of blood 

CHORUS(1) 

CHORUS(2)(2x)
