Banks of the River

Words & Music
Jerry Browning

 As I walked where He walked on the banks of the river
Where He sat with the twelve in the shade,
I can see Jesus there walking slowly beside me
Where they sat and they talked and they prayed.

In the shade of the trees that grow by the river,
Through the branches the wind whispers low.
Like the trees all around draw their life from the river,
So the Lord gives new life to my soul.

CH:
River Jordan, if you could only talk, and tell us all the things you’ve seen~
How the blind saw your waters, how the lame walked your shores,
And how sinners found a way to set them free.

As the sun sinks behind the hills by the river
Turning water to purple and gold
I can see Jesus walk on the banks of the river
Just the same as He did in days of old.

CH: Repeat
