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

Where do I go
When I'm thirsty and dry
I go to the river
And I always find
Rest for my soul
And 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
Where do I go
When I'm thirsty and dry
I go to the river
And I always find
Rest for my soul
And peace for my mind
I go to the river

What do I do
When I'm covered with stains
I go to the river
And I wash them away
Everything's new
Everything's changed
I go to the river
(I go to the river)

It's a river of healing
It's a river of faith
It's a river of gladness
It's a river of grace
Help me, Lord
It's a river of mercy
(River of mercy)
It's a river of love
(River, river of love)
It's a river of freedom
(Freedom)
'Cause it's a river of blood
(Blood, river of blood)
Where do I go
When I'm thirsty and dry
I go to the river
And I always find
Rest for my soul
I find peace for my mind
At the river
(I go to the river)

What do I do
When I'm covered with stains
I go to the river
(I go wash them away)
And I wash them away
Everything's new
Everything's changed
When I go to the river

Where do I go
When I'm thirsty and dry
I go to the river
And I always find
Rest for my soul
And peace for my mind
I go to the river
(Lord, it's good to know)
(That there's a place that I can go)
What do I do
(When I'm covered)
Covered with stains
I got to go to the river
Wash them away
(Wanna wash them away)
Everything's new
Everything's changed
I go to the river
(I go to the river)
I thank God for the river
Mmm, yeah
(I go to the river)
