The River

I heard this song on Pandora today for the first time.  It is a great song and just speaks the truth. I think even when things are going well we need to be reminded of Who is with us.  He is always there to be what we need in order to be used by Him.  He is always refining us...restoring us if needed.....and I love Him for that.

The River
by Chris Tomlin

When I was held up in chains
The river was free
When I was covered in stains
The river was clean
When I was losing my way
The river found me

I can see the river
I can feel the river
I'm letting go of all I hold onto
Let it wash away

When we were broken inside
The river was love
When we were thirsty and dry
You were more than enough
When we were drowning in lies
The river saved us

I'm dancing in the river
And I'll be here forever
I'm letting go of everything but You
Carry me away

Carry me away...
