River of Mercy

Verse 1

Silver sun behind the steeple

Wait for the rain

Walk with the weary people

Past the golden grain

Prayers like water on the ground

Soft as a breeze

Glory is the only sound

Through the apple trees

Pre-Chorus

No more sorrow

No more strife

Just the promise

Of eternal life

Chorus

Home in the garden

Where the river flows

Home in the garden

Where the goodness grows

Washed in the mercy

Healed by the light

Beautiful morning

After the night

Home in the garden

Verse 2

Dusty paths and worn-out sandals

Far from the gate

Light a couple tiny candles

Bless the ones who wait

Lion lays beside the lamb

Pure as the spring

Knowing just exactly who I am

While the angels sing

Pre-Chorus

No more sorrow

No more strife

Just the promise

Of eternal life

Chorus

Home in the garden

Where the river flows

Home in the garden

Where the goodness grows

Washed in the mercy

Healed by the light

Beautiful morning

After the night

Home in the garden

Bridge

He picked me up

He turned me round

He set my feet

On higher ground

Chorus

Home in the garden

Where the river flows

Home in the garden

Where the goodness grows

Washed in the mercy

Healed by the light

Beautiful morning

After the night

Home in the garden

Post-Chorus

Way down deep

In the garden

Glory glory

In the garden
