"River" lyrics

"River"

Open my heart, ground my body
Calm my mind, make it slow and steady
Like the little Harpeth River running through the cottonwoods
Slow me down enough to notice you surround me with Your goodness

Ooh, ooh

Open my eyes to the love around me
Pulling it close, so till it's all that I see
There's a heartbeat in the wind blowing through poplar trees
Can I be still enough to hear You whisper gently in the breeze

Can I be still and know
Can I be still and know
Can I be still and go
Drink from the River
Can I be still and know
Can I be still and know
Can I be still and go
Drink from the River

Open my arms to the light above me
Bow my head low to the ground at my feet
There's a healing that I needed taking root within my soul
Hand to heart, I breathe you in, You are here, You make me whole

Can I be still and know
Can I be still and know
Can I be still and go
Drink from the River
Can I be still and know
Can I be still and know
Can I be still and go
Drink from the River

You are here, I am here, and I know
You are here, I am here, and I know
You're here, and I am here, and we go
We go swim in the river

Yeah. The river keeps flowing
Through the forest to ocean
To the sky, to the mountain
In the winter, in the summer

When it's frozen, when it's running
All this life, well, it is coming
Life is coming
Life comes from the river

Can I be still and know
Can I be still and know
Can I be still and go
Drink from the River
Can I be still and know
Can I be still and know
Can I be still and go
Drink from the River

Can I be still and know
Can I be still and know
Can I be still and go
Drink from the River
I can be still and know
I can be still and know
I can be still and go
Drink from the River

I can be still and know
I can be still and know
I can be still and go
Drink from the River
Gonna drink from the river
