Gather at The River Lyrics

Sometimes we don't see eye to eye

We don't agree we don't know why

But Jesus prayed that we'd be one

So for the sake of God's own son

Can we put away our differences swallow our pride

I think it's time we started turning the tide

Shall we gather at the river of forgiveness

Come together at the waters of love

Flowing like a fountain from the mercy giver

Shall we gather at the river

Now we have all made enemies of

The ones we're called by Christ to love

But there's redemption at the riverside

The water's deep the water's wide

It can wash away our bitterness the current is strong

I think we've been out in the desert too long

Shall we gather at the river of forgiveness

Come together at the waters of love

Flowing like a fountain from the mercy giver

Shall we gather at the river

We can wade into the middle

Where the healing water flows

It only takes a little

To heal a wounded soul

It will only bring us closer

Than we've ever been before

This is just what Jesus was praying for

Shall we gather at the river of forgiveness

Come together at the waters of love

Flowing like a fountain from the mercy giver

Shall we gather at the river
