A rushing river sweeps around us Just as dark and cold as night, it surrounds us But we pass through the water to a safer shore We're sheltered from the raging river's roar
(Chorus) Though the night is long And the river's strong Still God is with us We can stem the tide Reach the other side For God is with us
The river deepens, night grows darker And the struggle seems to be getting harder Today has troubles yesterday has never known But we don't have to face them on our own
(Repeat Chorus)
And when we face the river's roll He holds our hand and won't let go
