Bob Hartman (Chorus) |
|
We need Your deep love to keep us strong |
|
We need Your truth to show us right from wrong |
|
We need Your sweet peace to keep us calm |
|
We need Your comfort to show us we belong to |
|
You Sometimes we're like a river |
|
Always running from our |
|
Source But when we wonder why we're almost runnin' dry |
|
You restore us and return us to our course |
|
Sometimes we get so desperate |
|
Straying further from the fold |
|
But when it seems that we're losing all our dreams |
|
There's a |
|
Shepherd with a loving hand to hold |
|
Forgive us |
|
Lord For thinking we can make it without |
|
You in this world |
|
We're so foolish |
|
Sometimes we're like a fortress |
|
With our walls built all around |
|
But then Your love comes shining down from above |
|
And we stand and watch our walls come tumbling down |
