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
Lay down our pride
I think it`s time we start turning the tide

Chorus:
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 have all made enemies of
The ones we`re call 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

Chorus

We can wade into the middle
Where the healing waters flow
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

Chorus
