Lyrics
 
Like A River
 

Words by: Orrin Hatch
Music by: Janice Kapp Perry

   
  Jesus’ love is like a river, flowing gently through my soul.
And the grace that it delivers makes me peaceful- makes me whole.
For everything grows where the water goes
And everything lives where the water flows.
Jesus’ love is like a river flowing gently through my soul.

Jesus’ love is like the sunshine falling softly on my face.
And it warms me like a fire, bringing comfort-bringing peace.
For everything grows where the sunlight goes
And everything’s green where the sunlight glows.
Jesus’ love is like the sunshine falling softly on my face.

Jesus’ love is like a lighthouse when the storms of life appear.
Like a beacon in the distance-always steady-always clear.
And those who will go where the lighthouse glows
Are warmed by his spirit and find repose
Jesus’ love is like a river-like the sunshine on my face.
Jesus’ love is like a lighthouse, leading to my peaceful place.
