Life,
it's like a flowing river.
There's a course laid out
for you and for me.
Each one of us,
we're like boats.
When left alone,
we just go with the flow.
The celestial bodies,
Always constant
Convince us of
That Heavenly presence.
Friends,
like wind and tide,
move along with us,
whatever betide.
Life,
it's like a flowing river.
There's a course laid out
for you and for me.
Twists and turns
come a many.
Ups and downs
Come in plenty.
Obstacles
may come our way.
Just push through them,
it will be okay.
But when we're lost
and confused,
we need 'em oars
to carry us through.
Life,
it's like a flowing river.
There's a course laid out
for you and for me.
Family, loved ones,
they're the oars,
guiding us
through the storm
and offering hope
when we look down.
When we were broken
And needed mending,
they sacrificed their dreams,
their lives, their everything.
'We're all of the same wood',
they kept saying.
Life,
it's like a flowing river.
There's a course laid out
for you and for me.
Oh little boat,
when you reach your final harbor,
when your wood is used
to make oars for another,
Don't you sigh,
Don't you cry,
Remember those oars,
Their sacrifices, their lives.
Midst storm and gale,
they supported you,
advised you
and led you through.
Now it's your turn
to change a life,
bring some joy and hope
and roll with the tide.
