Oh love of God, strong and true
In my barren soul, a river running through
Oh love of God, swift and straight
You have washed away my sin and leave no trace
River, rise and carry me away
I see you in the stars above
I feel you in the earth below
In waves that swell
In winds that blow
I marvel at the mystery
That one so great could love someone like me
Undeserved and free
Oh love of God, Oh love of God
Oh love of God, wondrous to me
That this quivering soul was lost and found indeed
Oh love of God, my shield and stay
Will you turn me to the oceans of Your grace
River, rise and carry me away
