There's a promise behind the desert
There is calm after the storm
There is peace when tears are over
El Shaddai will see me through

God will take me to the river
He will lift my weary soul
Put a robe upon my shoulder
Dry my eyes and take me home

No more darkness the sun is shining
No more pain the Healer came
There is strength when I proclaim
I will trust the great I Am

God will take me to the river
He will lift my weary soul
Put a robe upon my shoulder
Dry my eyes and lead me home

There is joy found at His fountain
Let us drink, it overflows
We shall rest in You our Saviour
Put our hope in You alone

God will take me to the river
He will lift my weary soul
Put a ring onto my finger
Dry my eyes and take me home

Jesus Christ (Jesus Christ)
We worship You (We worship You)
Everlasting, ever true (Everlasting, ever true)
Son of God (Son of God)
Our praises ring (Our praises ring)
Our sacrifice (Our sacrifice)
To Him we bring (To Him we bring)

God will take me to the river (God will take me to the river)
He will lift my weary soul (He will lift my weary)
Put a ring onto my finger (Put a ring onto my finger)
Dry my eyes and take me home (Dry my eyes and take me home)

God will take me to the river (God will take me to the river)
He will lift my weary soul (He will lift my weary)
Put a ring onto my finger (Put a ring onto my finger)
Dry my eyes and take me home (Dry my eyes and take me home)

Dry my eyes and take me home (Dry my eyes and take me home)
Dry my eyes and take me home (Dry my eyes and take me home)
