The Great Divide

Verse #1: Sometimes we don't see eye to eye

we don't agree, we don't know why.

But Jesus prayed that we'd be one;

so for the sake of God's own son can we put away our bitterness, lay down our pride.

I think it's time we start turning the tide!

Chorus: Shall we gather at the River of Forgiveness?

Come together at the Waters of Love;

Flowing like a fountain from the Mercy Giver.

Shall we gather at the River?

Verse #2: We have all made enemies of

the ones were called by Christ to love.

But there's redeption at the river side.

The water's deep, the water is wide;

it can wash away our bitterness, the current is strong.

I think we've been out in the desert too long!

(Chorus)

Bridge: We can wade into the middle where the healing waters flow;

It only takes a little to heal a wounded soul.

It will only bring us closer than we've ever been before.

This is just what Jesus was prayin' for!

Chorus#2: Come together!

Shall we gather at the River of Forgiveness,

Come together at the Waters of Love

Flowin' like a fountain from the Mercy Giver.

Shall we gather, gather at the river?

Come together at the waters of Love;

flowin' like a fountain from the Mercy Giver.

Shall we gather at the River?

Gather at the River (repeat 4 times).
