Verse
Are you tired
C#m 
of shame and secrets
wishing you
could let them go?
Do you feel
C#m 
like an orphan searching
for a
home?
There’s a love
C#m 
that fills what’s empty
There’s a place
you can be changed
There’s a God
C#m 
who knows you
 
He’s
calling out your name
 
Chorus
 
Come on
down to
C#m 
the river
 
Come be
washed in
the Blood
 
And your
sin will be
C#m 
forgiven by the
power of His
love
 
Come be
changed by
C#m 
the mercy that makes
all things
new
 
There the
lost get
C#m 
found come on
down, down down
 
To the
river!
 
REPEAT INTRO
 
Verse
It flows like
C#m 
the Mississippi
from the giver
of endless grace
Everyone
C#m 
is welcome here to
drive into
the waves
So leave the quest
C#m 
ions far behind you
leave your past
back on the shore
And run with wild
C#m 
abandon,
wait no more!
 
REPEAT CHORUS
 
Bridge
 
Every
F#m 
burden, every scar let the
C#m 
waters wash a
way
 
No matter
F#m 
who you were before
 
You be
long to Christ today
 
REFRAIN
 
As I went
down to the river to pray
 
studying
about that good ol’
way
 
And who shall wear the robe and crown; good
Lord
show me the
way
O sister
let’s go down, let’s go
down, come on
down
O sister
let’s go down,
down to the
river to
pray
