How we need the river

How we need the river

Lord, I thirst for You.
There is no one else who satisfies.
My soul, it longs for You
Like the deer panting for the water.

Now I wait for You.
Take me to Your courts of glory.
Fall upon me, Lord.
Give me strength to help me stand
in this dry and weary land.

Chorus
How we need the river.
How we need the rain.
Living water, flow to us again, we pray.
Shower down Your glory.
Shower down Your grace.
Let Your holy presence fill this place.
Let Your holy presence fill this place.

Holy, Holy, Holy, Holy, Holy, Holy Lord.

Deep calls unto deep.
Lord, we seek to know Your glory.
For there is only You,
And our hearts cry, “Abba, Father.”

Now, Lord Jesus, come.
May Your love and grace restore us.
Breathe upon us, Lord.
Let Your mercies be brand new.
Let the whole earth worship You.

Chorus
How we need the river.
How we need the rain.
Living water, flow to us again, we pray.
Shower down Your glory.
Shower down Your grace.
Let Your holy presence fill this place.
Let Your holy presence fill this place.

Jesus, Jesus,
Free us, free us
To worship in spirit and truth.

Heal us. Heal us.
Reveal to us, reveal to us
Your power.

Chorus
How we need the river.
How we need the rain.
Living water, flow to us again, we pray.
Shower down Your glory.
Shower down Your grace.
Let Your holy presence fill this place.
Let Your holy presence fill this place.
Let Your holy presence fill this place.
