Roll on river, roll on
Roll on river, roll on
Sweet water flow
And quench my thirsty soul
Roll on river, roll on
My heart is a barren land
Blown away like grains of sand
Sweet Jesus, come and rescue me
And lead me on to the water flowing free
Roll on river, roll on
Roll on river, roll on
Sweet water flow
And quench my thirsty soul
Roll on river, roll on
Sometimes I lose my way
And I can't go on another day
Sweet Jesus, show me where to turn
And quench this fire, fire, Lord, that burns
Roll on river, roll on
Roll on river, roll on
Sweet water flow
And quench my thirsty soul
Roll on river, roll on
Sweet water flow
And quench my thirsty soul
Roll on river, roll on
