Light At The River



© '57 Peer International



There's a deep silent river flowin' just beyond

And its waters are deep and wide

It's as dark as the night but my eyes see a light

Just down by the riverside



Chorus:

There's a light at the river

A light at the river a light at the river I can see

My Lord will stand and hold in his hand a light at the river for me



To this deep silent river I have come on my knees

I'm afraid for I know I've sinned

But the beckoning light leads me on through the night

To the waters where my soul may be cleansed



Repeat chorus



I can hear His voice saying come unto me

Dip your wings in the misty tide

Then we'll pass o'er deep and you'll never more weep

In your home on the other side



Repeat chorus
