A River Deep and Wide

A River Deep and Wide

In the quiet of the morning, before the world begins to wake

I can feel Your gentle mercies in the steady breath I take

Every mountain that I face, every valley deep and wide

Is a canvas for Your grace, with Your spirit as my guide

You have held my fragile hand through the shifting of the sand

By Your word alone I stand

Oh, Your goodness is a river running deep and running wide

It's an anchor in the breaker, it's the healing stream inside

From the rising of the sun to the setting of the same

I will praise Your holy name

For You are good, forever good

Lord, Your faithfulness remains

When the shadows start to lengthen and the night begins to fall

In the middle of the silence, You’re the answer to my call

Every broken piece of clay, every tear that fell unseen

You have washed them all away, making dirty places clean

Through the fire and the flood, by the power of Your blood

You are tracking down my heart

Oh, Your goodness is a river running deep and running wide

It's an anchor in the breaker, it's the healing stream inside

From the rising of the sun to the setting of the same

I will praise Your holy name

For You are good, forever good

Lord, Your faithfulness remains

Your mercy is not a seasonal thing

It’s the song that the angels forever will sing

It is higher than heavens and deeper than seas

It's the breath in my lungs and the bend in my knees

Hallelujah to the Maker, Hallelujah to the King

You are the source of everything

Hallelujah to the Maker, Hallelujah to the King

You are the source of everything

Oh, Your goodness is a river running deep and running wide

It's an anchor in the breaker, it's the healing stream inside

From the rising of the sun to the setting of the same

I will praise Your holy name

For You are good, forever good

Lord, Your faithfulness remains

Forever good, forever kind

The greatest treasure I could find

In the waking, in the sleeping

My whole life is in Your keeping

You are good

Lord, You are good

Amen
