"Get To The River" - from the album "The Season Of Love"
(Michael Tolf)
Well - this song is very special to me.
It was an accident how I stumbled upon the opening chords - and the song just grew from there.
When God wants to give a song...there's no stopping Him. And this was certainly one of those God moments. "Get To River" is so fun to play, especially with my band...and I love the imagery of jumping into the river & washing away my sins.
God's river of life is there for the taking...every day!
Oh Lord I love You
I lay my life before You
To see You
Just to be with You
Just to have You by my side
When I woke up this morning - I said come right in
When I read the Word this morning - I said come right in
And I know I know
Gotta get to the river
And jump right in
Yes I know I know
Gotta get to the river
Wash away my sin
When I walked with You this morning - You had so much to say
When I talked with You this morning - You taught me how to pray
And I know I know
Gotta get to the river
And jump right in
Yes I know I know
Gotta get to the river
Wash away my sin
You bring me love
You bring me joy...
I'll jump right in
Extended Chorus...
