Peace like a river
Wash over me
Immerse me in water
As deep as the sea
Hide me in love
Your healing embrace
Peace like a river
Wash over me

As I worship Your majesty
I worship Your holy Name
Jesus my everything
All that I am is Yours

Come Holy Spirit
Rain down on me
Break open the heavens
And drench the unseen
Pour out Your presence
As I pour out Your praise
Come Holy Spirit
Lord have Your way

As I worship Your majesty
I worship Your holy Name
Jesus my everything
All that I am is Yours

Open the heavens
Fling wide the gates

Inhabit our praise
As we cry holy, holy

Meaning & Inspiration
This Hillsong Young & Free song is a prayer for the Holy Spirit to move, first in the singer's own life and then across a whole nation. It begins in stillness with "Peace like a river / Wash over me," asking to be hidden in God's "healing embrace" before anything is requested for others.
The chorus is a plain offering: "Jesus my everything / All that I am is Yours." The second verse turns to the Spirit, with "Come Holy Spirit / Rain down on me" and a request to "Pour out Your presence / As I pour out Your praise."
The bridge widens the view to a gathered church, asking God to "Open the heavens" and "Flood every heart with mercy" while the room cries "holy, holy." The closing chorus is the central plea: "Lord send revival / Lord send it now," remembering that God has moved before and asking him to "do it again."
It fits youth gatherings, prayer nights and any service that sets aside time to wait on the Spirit.
