Roll on river, roll on

Roll on river, roll on

Sweet water flow

And quench my thirsty soul

Roll on river, roll on

My heart is a barren land

Blown away like grains of sand

Sweet Jesus, come and rescue me

And lead me on to the water flowing free

Roll on river, roll on

Roll on river, roll on

Sweet water flow

And quench my thirsty soul

Roll on river, roll on

Sometimes I lose my way

And I can't go on another day

Sweet Jesus, show me where to turn

And quench this fire, fire, Lord, that burns

Roll on river, roll on

Roll on river, roll on

Sweet water flow

And quench my thirsty soul

Roll on river, roll on

Sweet water flow

And quench my thirsty soul

Roll on river, roll on
