Lyrics

(Verse 1)
I stand by the water, my sins weigh me down,
Trapped in the current, my hope nearly drowned.
The river roared loud, with a mighty sound,
But a voice whispered soft, “You’re already found.”
(Pre-Chorus)
Through the shadows, through the storm,
I felt His mercy, strong and warm,
No depth too dark, no soul too torn,
His love broke through to see me reborn!
(Chorus)
The river runs deep, but grace runs wide,
Washed my soul in heaven’s tide,
Every tear, every chain, swept away in His name,
Oh, the river runs deep, but grace runs wide!
(Verse 2)
I’ve waded through troubles, felt the muddy clay,
Thought the flood would take me far away,
But His hand reached down through the swirling deep,
Drew me close where His mercy keeps.
(Pre-Chorus)
Through the shadows, through the storm,
I felt His mercy, strong and warm,
No depth too dark, no soul too torn,
His love broke through to see me reborn!
(Chorus)
The river runs deep, but grace runs wide,
Washed my soul in heaven’s tide,
Every tear, every chain, swept away in His name,
Oh, the river runs deep, but grace runs wide!
(Bridge)
Oh, the current tried to hold me down,
But grace turned my life around,
From the banks of shame to glory’s shore,
I’m baptized in His love forevermore!
(Chorus)
The river runs deep, but grace runs wide,
Washed my soul in heaven’s tide,
Every tear, every chain, swept away in His name,
Oh, the river runs deep, but grace runs wide!
(Outro)
Yes, the river runs deep, but grace runs wide
