O love of God, strong and true,
In my barren soul, a river running through.
O love of God, swift and straight,
You have washed away my sin and leave no trace.
River, rise and carry me away
I see You in the stars above
I feel You in the earth below
In waves that swell, in winds that blow
I marvel at the mystery
That One so great could love someone like me
Undeserved and free
O love of God
O love of God
O love of God, wondrous to me
That this quivering soul was lost and found in Thee.
O love of God, my shield and spade,
Will You turn me to the oceans of Your grace?
River, rise and carry me away
I see You in the stars above
I feel You in the earth below
In waves that swell, in winds that blow
I marvel at the mystery
That One so great could love someone like me
Undeserved and free
O love of God
O love of God
River, rise and carry me away
I see You in the stars above
I feel You in the earth below
In waves that swell, in winds that blow
I marvel at the mystery
That One so great could love someone like me
Undeserved and free
O love of God
O love of God
O love of God
O love of God
