God is a River 가사

In the ever-shifting water of the river of this life I was swimming, seeking comfort; I was wrestling waves to find A boulder I could cling to, a stone to hold me fast Where I might let the fretful water of this river 'round me pass And so I found an anchor, a blessed resting place A trusty rock I called my savior, for there I would be safe From the river and its dangers, and I proclaimed my rock divine And I prayed to it "protect me" and the rock replied God is a river, not just a stone God is a wild, raging rapids And a slow, meandering flow God is a deep and narrow passage And a peaceful, sandy shoal God is the river, swimmer So let go Still I clung to my rock tightly with conviction in my arms Never looking at the stream to keep my mind from thoughts of harm But the river kept on coming, kept on tugging at my legs Till at last my fingers faltered, and I was swept away So I'm going with the flow now, these relentless twists and bends Acclimating to the motion, and a sense of being led And this river's like my body now, it carries me along Through the ever-changing scenes and by the rocks that sing this song God is a river, not just a stone God is a wild, raging rapids And a slow, meandering flow God is a deep and narrow passage And a peaceful, sandy shoal God is the river, swimmer So let go God is the river, swimmer So let go
