lyrics
A river wrought by mercy flows and gathers at thy feet
We launch upon repentance setting sail upon its sea
The wind of words the prophets spoke
The writings of the fathers
They move us close
They bring us close
And He takes me to the riverbed
and washes me beneath the waves
And He takes me to the riverbed
and washes me beneath the waves
I will not be clean
I will not be clean until you wash me
A river wrought with mercy flows
Now spring to life, thou guilty soul
You’re already loved
Came ye lame, who walk no more
Arise and raise your bed this morn’
And stretch your knees, so worn
And run to meet the shore
So we gather at the river
And we lay our burdens down
And I feel my soul delivered
And I drown beneath loves sound
And He takes me to the riverbed
and washes me beneath the waves
And He takes me to the riverbed
and washes me beneath the waves
We launch upon repentance setting sail upon its sea
The wind of words the prophets spoke
The writings of the fathers
They move us close
They bring us close
And He takes me to the riverbed
and washes me beneath the waves
And He takes me to the riverbed
and washes me beneath the waves
I will not be clean
I will not be clean until you wash me
A river wrought with mercy flows
Now spring to life, thou guilty soul
You’re already loved
Came ye lame, who walk no more
Arise and raise your bed this morn’
And stretch your knees, so worn
And run to meet the shore
So we gather at the river
And we lay our burdens down
And I feel my soul delivered
And I drown beneath loves sound
And He takes me to the riverbed
and washes me beneath the waves
And He takes me to the riverbed
and washes me beneath the waves

about
Preson Phillips Tampa, Florida
Tampa Florida’s Preson Phillips has been called “a refreshing change from mainstream worship music [who’s] songs recall the
wide-eyed fervor of the early 70s Jesus music artists” ~itunes review.
With an americana influenced sound ranging from folk to alt/country, newcomers should expect a real, almost personal, connection with the emotions and ancient spirituality of the music of Preson Phillips.
