River and Valley

A song from Gold Records Vol. 1 - 1 Nephi.

Lyrics

I keep running like a river

To the fountain, never dry

World keeps shaking all around me

But I’m steady deep inside

Yeah, I’m planted in the valley

Where the truth don’t ever move

Ten toes down on the promise

Every road leads back to You

I been through the highs and lows

Backroad nights and broken roads

Everybody tryna find gold

But my soul found living hope

Yeah the current keep calling

Hear Your voice through the noise

When the pressure keeps falling

I still got reason for joy

Hands high

Even when the rain falls down

Stand firm

Even when the world spins round

I know where the river goes

I know where my strength is found

Ain’t backing down now

Built on the Rock now

Faith when the lights out

Still gonna sing loud

I keep running like a river

To the fountain, never dry

World keeps shaking all around me

But I’m steady deep inside

Yeah, I’m planted in the valley

Where the truth don’t ever move

Ten toes down on the promise

Every road leads back to You

Yeah

Valley low but the faith high

Storm hit, I don’t capsize

Truth in my chest like brake lines

Kingdom built, no franchise

Look

I done seen pain

I done seen chains

I done seen fear put a whole crowd in graves

But the Word still stand when the culture fade

Living water run deep, never dissipate

Talk slick, but the Rock never moved though

World cold, but the fire still burn slow

River run straight to the source, that’s true flow

Christ on the throne, that’s the hill that I build on

Let the earth shake

I’ll still praise

Let the night fall

I’m still safe

Built different ‘cause mercy made me

Grace got a grip and it won’t let go

Steady

Steady

You keep my heartbeat steady

Steady

Steady

Even in the pressure heavy

River running

Never stopping

Your love carrying me

Valley standing

Never folding

That’s who You made me be

I keep running like a river

To the fountain, never dry

Even when the walls are falling

You’re the reason I survive

Yeah, I’m planted in the valley

Firm and faithful through it all

If the mountains start to crumble

I know You will never fall
