The River That Runs Through Me Lyrics

I was dry as the desert, the earth cracked with pain

Searching for hope in a season of rain

The preacher spoke of waters that never run dry

A wellspring of grace from the Father's sky

I knelt by the altar, my heart split wide

And found the healing stream flowing inside

Oh, the river that runs through me

Clear and deep

Washing the wounds I thought I'd keep

From barren soul to a boundless sea

Oh, thank God for the river that runs through me

Years of regret and a past left behind

Memories chain to the scars in my mind

But the word of the Lord is a balm to the soul

A healing current that makes me whole

It whispers forgiveness, it teaches me peace

A tide of redemption that will not cease

Oh, the river that runs through me

Steady and strong

Carrying me through where I've been wrong

Its flow restores what I couldn't see

The unending love in the river that runs through me

It's the river that calmed the stormy sea

The river that flowed from Calvary

Living water that quenches all thirst

The spirit that fills the soul immersed

It's the hope for the broken, the joy of the saved

The river that rescues from the grave

Now walk through the valley, my heart unafraid

For the stream still flows through the path He made

Even in shadows, its waters are near

The healing of heaven forever clear

Someday I'll cross where the crystal flows

And kneel at the throne where the river flows

Oh, the river that runs through me

Bright as gold

Pouring His grace into this soul

From now to forever my song will be

Praise for the river that runs through me

The river of life, it has no end

Flowing with mercy again and again

Flowing with mercy again and again

For every heart broken, for all set free

There's healing in the river that runs through me

Thanks for listening!
