There's a hope that leads my footsteps
Ones that go before and behind
Even out here in the desert
You are the promise I find
And I got so used to wandering
That I forgot the power of Your love
How Your hands are always moving
You're working all things for good
You're working all things for good
What if I just look down at my feet
And I see You have made a way for me
What if I trust You above anything else
And lay down myself
Even in the driest land
A river runs through it
A river runs through it
A river runs through it
It goes on and on and on and on
I can't see the highs of these hillsides
Or how far the valleys will go
But I have seen the fruit of Your goodness
You'll never leave me, I know
What if I just look down at my feet
And I see You have made a way for me
What if I trust You above anything else
And lay down myself
Even in the driest land
A river runs through it
A river runs through it
A river runs through it
It goes on and on and on and on
Even when the day runs out of light
Even in the darkest part of night
Even in death and fear and life
A river runs through it
Even in the face of waves of shame
Even in sickness and in pain
Every time I call out on Your name
A river runs through it
It's Your living water
(A river runs through it)
It's Your living water I find
And wherever, You're always the giver
It's Your fearless faithfulness I find
What if I just look down at my feet
And I see You have made a way for me
What if I trust You above anything else
And lay down myself
Even in the driest land
A river runs through it
A river runs through it
A river runs through it
It goes on and on and on and on
