Sometimes we don't see eye to eye

We don't agree, we don't know why

But Jesus prayed that we'd be one

So for the sake of God's own Son

Can we put away our differences

Lay down our pride

I think it's time we start turning the tide



Chorus:

Shall we gather at the river of forgiveness

Come together at the waters of love

Flowing like a fountain from the mercy giver

Shall we gather at the river



We have all made enemies of

The ones we're call by Christ to love

But there's redemption at the riverside

The water's deep, the water's wide

It can wash away our bitterness

The current is strong

I think we've been out in the desert too long



Chorus



We can wade into the middle

Where the healing waters flow

It only takes a little

To heal a wounded soul

It will only bring us closer

Than we've ever been before

This is just what Jesus was praying for



Chorus
