The River

I know I include alot of lyrics in my notes and I don't really know how many people take the time to stop and read them.....they are all songs that God has used mightily in my life to bless, encourage, and even chastise me at times. I write them out here so that you may share in the blessing that I have received from God. This song is another one by my favorite Christian female artist, Meredith Andrews who happens to be just two weeks older than I am. (Fun Fact! :0) I had the privilege of being introduced to Meredith and her music last April at an Aaron Shust (another favorite) concert where she was the opening artist. The beautiful truths in her music brought me to tears, and I have been blessed over and over again by her CD called the Invitation. If you get the chance you should check her out, I promise you WILL be blessed.

everyone is broken and in need of a savior
so He came and was broken for the mocker,
for the shamed
still our eyes are blinded by the culture,
by the lies
we can't see that were filthy, we're fallen
and so dry

but He invites us
can you hear Him say
He invites us
hear Him call your name

welcome to the river
come drink come wade come find your very life
welcome to the river of God
where your brokeness is washed away

everywhere is the sorrow
and the pain of empty living
you can see it, look in their eyes
all the hopelessness of the world
but look closer He is right there
in the midst of every fear

living water is the offer
restoration is the call
and He invites us
can you hear Him say
He invites us
hear Him call your name

welcome to the river
come drink come wade come find your very life
welcome to the river of god
where your brokeness is washed away

welcome to the river
come drink come wade come find your very life
welcome to the river of God
where your brokeness is washed away

find your healing
find your freedom
in the river of God

find your healing
find your freedom
in the river of God

your healing here
your freedom here
in the river of God

your healing here
your freedom here
in the river of God

welcome to the river
come drink come wade come find your very life
welcome to the river of God
where your brokeness is washed away

..washed away

everyone is broken and in need of a savior
