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 river side
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
There's a light at the river...
I can hear His voice saything come unto me dip your wings in the misty tide
Then we'll pa** o'er deep and you'll never more weep in your home on the other side
There's a light at the river...
A light at the river for me
