[VERSE 1]

When I rise, I say Your name
Because You are my beginning
Your attention is all I truly desire
Oh I thirst for Your presence more than I thirst for water

Lord Your word is what fills me
(You) Satisfy oh my soul
When I drink from Your word I know that I will never thirst again

[CHORUS]

Because You are the river of life
You flooded this dried up creek of a soul
And made it alive, so I will lift my hands and sing my praises
To the Lord and King, the mountains bow before You, Savior King
Glory and honor and praise, to my King

[VERSE 2]

When I rise, I say Your name
Because You are my beginning
Lord Your word is what fills me
Satisfies all my soul
When I drink from Your word I will be satisfied

[CHORUS]

Because You are the river of life
You flooded this dried up creek of a soul
And made it alive, so I will lift my hands and sing my praises
To the Lord and King, the mountains bow before You, Savior King
Glory and honor and praise

[BRIDGE]

I was lost and thirsty
Had no hope, felt dirty
All my sin held me bound
Lungs full up, gonna drown

You stepped in, found me there
In Your life resurrected
No longer in sin bound
In Christ now, I am found
By Christ the King

[CHORUS]

Because You are the river of life
You flooded this dried up creek of a soul
And made it alive, so I will lift my hands and sing my praises
To the Lord and King, the mountains bow before You, Savior King
Glory and honor and praise to my King
