The River is Wide Lyrics
The river’s so wide
Carry me across
Carry me across
To the other side

The river’s so wide
Carry me across
Carry me across
To the other side
The river’s is wide

I cross the Jordan to be where you are
Your love is greater than the brightest star
I’ll be with you till the end of the earth
Only you know what my love for you is worth
The river’s is wide, The river’s is wide, The river’s is wide

The river’s so wide
Carry me across
Carry me across
To the other side

The river’s so wide
Carry me across
Carry me across
To the other side

I am found where once I was lost
It took you so long to carry me across
You carried me safe in your arms
You protected me from hurt and harm

I can’t believe that I survived
I can’t believe that I’m here alive
You helped me to make it through
I wouldn’t have made it without you
The river’s is wide, The river’s is wide,
The river’s is wide, The river’s is wide

The river’s so wide
You carried me across
You carried me across
To the other side

I’ll always be by your side
My love for you I cannot hide
You saved me from my certain fate
I’ll face the world and all its hate

Though I face scorn every day of the week
You taught me how to turn the other cheek
They can’t understand what it is I feel
That my love for you is eternally real

The river’s so wide
You carried me across
You carried me across
To the other side

The river’s so wide, The river’s so wide
The river’s so wide
You carried me across
You carried me across
To the other side
The river’s so wide
