Album: Love Remains (2016)
Play Video
  • Are you tired of shame in secrets?
    Wishing you can let them go
    Do you feel you're often searching for a home?
    Well there's a love that fills what's empty
    There's a place you can be changed
    There's a God who knows you
    He's calling out your name

    Come on down to the river
    Come be washed in the blood
    And your sins will be forgiven by the power of His love
    Come be changed by the mercy
    That makes all things new
    Where the lost get found
    Come on down, down, down to the river
    To the river

    It flows like the Mississippi
    From the giver of endless grace
    And everyone is welcome here to dive into the waves
    So leave the questions far behind you
    Leave your past back on the shore
    And run with wild abandoned
    Wait no more

    Come on down to the river
    Come be washed in the blood
    And your sins will be forgiven by the power of His love
    Come be changed by the mercy
    That makes all things new
    Where the lost get found
    Come on down, down, down to the river
    To the river

    Every burden, every scar
    Let the waters wash away
    No matter who you were before
    You belong to Christ today
    Yeah, you belong to Christ today

    As I went down to the river to pray
    Studying about that good 'ol way
    And who shall wear the robe and crown
    Good Lord, show me the way
    Oh Sister, let's go down, let's go down, come on down
    Oh Sister, let's go down, down to the river to pray

    Come on down to the river
    Come be washed in the blood
    And your sins will be forgiven by the power of His love
    Come be changed by the mercy
    Makes all things new
    Where the lost get found
    Come on down, down, down to the river
    To the river

    Come on down, come on down, oh oh
    To the river, oh oh Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
