V1:
Are you tired? Are you weary?
Are you running out of places you can hide?
Are you lost? Feeling hopeless?
With a burden you can’t bear another night?
PRE:
Can you hear it? The rushing of waters, Healing streams that flow from His side
CHORUS:
There is a river, a river of mercy
It flows to the broken, the lost and the hurting
Come to the river, the river of mercy
And be clean
V2:
Come on out from your darkness
And the whispers of a thousand different lies
There’s a voice that is calling
With a power that will bring you back to life
Chorus – Repeat Chorus – Building Instrumental
Bridge:
There is a fountain filled with blood drawn from Emmanuel’s veins
And sinners plunged beneath its flood lose all their guilty stains
