Oh, sweet Jesus, let your water wash down

This world's full of people, so very lost and just looking to be found

The river's running and I pray it don't pass us by

The faces of the children, they're looking for the love and the life

F                                        G                          F                        G

Well what have we got to show them?  And how do we help grow them

                    F

Show us the light.  You show us what's right

And we sing, Hallelujah, Glory, Glory, Hallelujah to our Lord

Hallelujah, Glory, Glory, Hallelujah to our Lord
