There's a deep silent river flowin' just beyond
And its waters are deep and wide
It's as dark as the night but my eyes see a light
Just down by the riverside
Chorus:
There's a light at the river
A light at the river a light at the river I can see
My Lord will stand and hold in his hand a light at the river for me
To this deep silent river I have come on my knees
I'm afraid for I know I've sinned
But the beckoning light leads me on through the night
To the waters where my soul may be cleansed
Repeat chorus
I can hear His voice saying come unto me
Dip your wings in the misty tide
Then we'll pass o'er deep and you'll never more weep
In your home on the other side
Repeat chorus
