Rivers Rising

Verse 1

Step where the current pulls your feet

Cold as truth, but it makes you clean

Hear that whisper in the deep

Saying, “Child, come walk with Me”

Pre-Chorus

Don’t be afraid of the shifting ground

Every storm’s got a sacred sound

Chorus

Go down where the river runs wild

Let it carry every burden you hide

Feel the rush, let it open your eyes

There’s a freedom on the other side

When the water starts calling your name

You don’t leave the same

⸻

Verse 2

Shadows fall but they lose their hold

When you step where the brave ones go

Every fear that you used to know

Washes out in the undertow

Pre-Chorus

You don’t fight it, you let it flow

There’s a strength in letting go

Chorus

Go down where the river runs wild

Let it carry every burden you hide

Feel the rush, let it open your eyes

There’s a freedom on the other side

When the water starts calling your name

You don’t leave the same

⸻

Bridge (strong, emotional)

If you’re lost in the dark, don’t run from the tide

There’s a light in the deep where your soul comes alive

Every chain that you drag, every scar that you keep

There’s a healing waiting underneath

So step in, step in, even if you’re afraid

Let the past fall away in the waves that it made

You were never alone in the fight that you faced

Now the river’s gonna carry your pain away

⸻

Final Chorus (bigger, lifted)

Go down where the river runs wild

Let it carry every broken inside

Hear the sound like a holy cry

Saying, “Child, you were born to rise”

When the water starts calling your name

You don’t leave the same

No, you don’t leave the same
