Sweet Rivers Of Redeeming Love

In shadows of the night, faith mounts the upper sky
Behold my heart’s delight, I would rejoice to die
Rise above my pain, cross death’s cold stormy main
With joy out strip the wind
And leave this world of sin behind

Sweet rivers
Sweet rivers
Sweet rivers of redeeming love
Sweet rivers
Sweet rivers
Sweet rivers of redeeming love

Through ages still untold, we’ll tune our harps of gold
And let their praises ring to our eternal king
Sweet rivers of redeeming love
Sweet rivers of redeeming love
Through anguish, pain and smart
To where love surrounds my heart

Sweet rivers
Sweet rivers
Sweet rivers of redeeming love
Sweet rivers
Sweet rivers
Sweet rivers of redeeming love
