The River Lyrics

Well she walked to the river

To find what she had lost

Somewhere in the darkness

It seemed she had forgot

That though her sins were scarlet

His scarlet washed her clean

There beneath the waters

she came back up redeemed

Now she sings

Glory Hallelujah

Glory Hallelujah

Glory Hallelujah

My sweet Lord done set me free

As she sat beside the river

She laid her burdens down

All the weight she carried

Broken by the sound

Of heavens angels singing

Worthy is the lamb

For Christ the King has risen

So she could rise again

Singin

Glory Hallelujah

Glory Hallelujah

Glory Hallelujah

My sweet Lord done set me free

Glory Hallelujah

Glory Hallelujah

Glory Hallelujah

My sweet Lord done set me free

The fact that we were all lost and deserved condemnation

The fact that we could not save ourselves by our own works

And didn't even want to

The fact that God sent His only Begotten

Precious

Holy son

To die on a tree

Carrying our sin and condemned under our judgement

There beside the river

She watched that current flow

Dragging shame and filth

Somewhere deep below

From that moment on

Her wretched soul was saved

Til Jesus called her home

where she stood face to face

Singin

Glory Hallelujah

Glory Hallelujah

Glory Hallelujah

My sweet Lord done set me free

Glory Hallelujah

Glory Hallelujah

Glory Hallelujah

My sweet Lord done set me free

So let's keep it simple

Christ and

Christ alone
