Deep River
© ROESCH 2020

There’s a, deep river … pushing its way through the dark and day
There’s a, deep river … that winds its way to the end of your stay
There is a, deep, deep river … that binds us all to our DNA
There’s a, powerful river … that won’t stop flowing, come what may.
… And oh it flows

There’s a, deep river … ablaze in life right before your eyes
There’s a, deep river … so clear in conscious it can mesmerize
There is a, deep river … that builds the bridges of trust and love
There’s a, powerful river … that takes you from the bottom and lifts you up … …
… And oh it flows

(chorus)
It keeps on flowing – Always rolling – Never slowing
Straight to your heart
It keeps flowing – And bestowing – Deeply knowing
Never to depart

There’s a, deep river … rolling in your darkest hour
There’s a, deep river … don’t hesitate, or you’ll miss its power
There’s a, deep river … that teaches you to heal all that you know
There’s a, powerful river … and true to the river so shall you sow
… And oh it flows

(chorus)
It keeps on flowing – Always rolling – Never slowing
Straight to your heart
It keeps flowing – And bestowing – Deeply knowing
Never to depart

You can, drown on its banks, but not in its waters – and if you don’t know that yet, you’ll come to own it.
It knows right from wrong, pleasure from harm – and it will lead you home.
And don’t despair when you tear at yourself and do the things you despise,
because the river is kind, it forgives every time, as you know in your heart …
… and mind

There’s a, deep river … listen to me now and open your heart
There’s a, deep river … without it the darkness will tear you apart
There’s a, deep river … from which you flow as you already know
There’s a, powerful river … wade into it and let your life flow
… and oh it flows!

(chorus)
Keeps on flowing – Always rolling – Never slowing
Straight to your heart
Keeps on flowing – And bestowing – Deeply knowing
Never to depart

It’s the mast up in the storm
When it’s dark it brings the dawn
It’s a heart to call your own
And He’s the one to lead you home
