|E  F#m7  Ano3|   D   |E  F#m7  Ano3|       |E  F#m7  Ano3|    |    |

D2                     A2          E                   Esus       E
Sometimes we don't see eye to eye.  We don't agree, we don't know why.
D2                        A2       G2                        A
But Jesus prayed that we'd be one.  So, for the sake of God's own Son,
       B        Bsus                B            Bsus
can we put away our diff'rences,    lay down our pride?
A2                           D2
  I think it's time we start turnin' the tide.

Chorus:
E       F#m7             A2    D2
  Shall we gather at the river of forgiveness,
E      F#m7            G2        A2
  come together at the waters of love?
E            F#m7                A2    D2
Flowin' like a fountain from the mercy giver;
A2                       E      F#m7  A|   |E  F#m7  A|    |
  shall we gather at the river?

Verse 2:
We have all made enemies of
the ones we're called by Christ to love.
But there's redemption at the riverside.
The water's deep, the water's wide.
It can wash away our bitterness.
The current is strong.
I think we've been out in the desert too long.

Repeat Chorus
(A)
We can wade into the middle where the healing waters flow.
It only takes a litle to heal a wounded soul.
It will only bring us closer than we've ever been before.
                               Ano3 B7sus   E
This is just what Jesus was prayin' for.

Repeat Chorus with special ending
Shall we gather? Shall we gather, gather at the river,
Come together...FLowin'...Shall we gather...
Come together...FLowin'...Shall we gather...
gather at the river, gather at the river, gather at the river
