I Go To The River
Words by Ray Boltz and Brent Alan Henderson
Music by Ray Boltz, Brent Alan Henderson and Steve Millikan
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 One
Where do I go when Im 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 Two
What do I do
When I'm covered with stains
And I wash them away
Everything's new
Everything's changed
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
(repeat)
