Waterfall (2004) – Reuben Morgan

Waterfall is a Christian worship song by Reuben Morgan. As a worship pastor, he sang and wrote for the Pentecostal megachurch Hillsong Church for many years. When I was a member of Mornington Baptist Church in the early 2000s, a small entourage from Hillsong, including Reuben as the principal guest, came to perform. My job was to operate the video setup and lyrics during their performance.

As part of the “team,” we got to spend time with Reuben and company over a meal. It was a real thrill for me to talk with him in person, since I was such a big admirer of his work.

His contributions on the live worship album For All You’ve Done at the Sydney Entertainment Centre were brilliant. I cannot begin too tell you how big that album was ….hitting the mainstream charts at No. 1. I had also recently bought his solo album World Through Your Eyes (image inset), which I was playing to death at the time.

Today’s featured song, Waterfall along with the title track, were my favourite songs from the record. The latter will feature here in the not-too-distant future due to the alphabetical order of listing.

World Through Your Eyes, debuted at No. 3 in the Australian Christian Charts. As of at least 2025, he is no longer involved with Hillsong, but along with fellow former Hillsong vocalist Ben Fielding, started a band called CXMMXNS.

Here I am dieing to say
I am desperate for your touch
I fall upon this desert ground and I am empty at your feet
Will you break me now
Will you take me in your grace

Take me deeper in love
Take me deeper with you
Where the streams of your mercy run
Feel your waves over me
Feel your power over me
In the roar of your waterfall

Wash away the hidden stains
Of my falleness I pray
I’ll tell the world
Of all you’ve done
Of your saving power in me

Saturate me now
Ever leave me in your grace
