Album: Man by the River
Verse 1
I've heard it said when I go to the river
I'll find the Man I've been looking for
I've heard the tales, they say He is a prophet
And He's speaking on behalf of the Lord
Verse 2
I saw this Man as I went by the river
Healing the sick and the lame to walk
He told the man to go wash in the water
And he came out without his sores
Chorus
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Verse 3
(We followed Him)
We followed Him as He went on His journey
He showed us things that we'd never seen
He told us that He'd been sent by the Father
And He came to make us clean
Verse 4
He called me friend as we walked through the valley
Taught me to pray for my enemies
Not to curse but to bless everybody
And to turn the other cheek
Chorus
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
(One, two, three, four)
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh
Verse 5
Oh, what a shock when I saw my Beloved
Hanging there on that wretched tree
All alone as He cried to the Father
"Lord, forgive them for they do not see"
Spontaneous
Lift Him up, lift Him up
Verse 6
Looking for peace, I went down to the river
I had just been through the darkest night
There was a Man standing out on the water
With fire burning in His eyes
Looking for peace, I went down to the river
I had just been through the darkest night
There was a Man standing out on the water
With fire burning in His eyes
And His name was Jesus Christ
Oh, He's not dead, He's been raised to life
Chorus
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
(One, two, three, four)
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Verse 7
He's coming back to take us to Heaven
The Father's arms, they are open wide
The Spirit says, "Come on down sons and daughters
To receive eternal life"
He's coming back to take us to Heaven
The Father's arms, they are open wide
The Spirit says, "Come on down sons and daughters
To receive eternal life"
Oh, to receive eternal life
Oh, come receive eternal life
Chorus
(One, two, three, four)
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
(Oh, how we love You)
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Outro
Oh, how we love You, Jesus
Oh, how we love You, Jesus
