O love of God, strong and true
In my barren soul a river running free
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
Repeat Chorus
River rise and carry me away
Repeat Chorus
O love of God
O love of God
