Verse1:
C
There’s a war going on just across the street
There’s a rage that’s burning to an angry beat
Bb/C F/C
I can feel the thirst but there’s no relief
C
We need a river
There’s a sound in the distance like a thunder cloud
Waiting for the rain while the sun beats down
Bb/C F/C
Can you feel it rising from the underground?
C
We need a river
Pre-Chorus:
E/G# Am
Oh let justice roll like rivers,
E/G# Am Bb
Oh let mercy flow with love, love
Chorus:
C Gm7
Come to the water, come to the water of life
F
It will never run dry
C Gm7
Come to the water, run to the water of life
F
It will never run dry
Verse2:
C
There’s a cry from the child in the factory
There’s a prayer for the prisoners of poverty
Bb/C F/C
Save us from the greed and the apathy
C
We need a river
There’s a hope like a flood running down our street
We’re an army of peacemakers on our feet
Bb/C F/C
Take us to the place love and mercy meet
C
There is a river
