Life Is A River

Life Is A River - Derek Ryan

...

As I went out walking, on a fine summers day

Through hills and the valleys, I soon lost my way

'Til I came to an old man, kneeling down by a stream

Gazing into the water like he was lost in a dream

In his hand was a picture he clung to for life

His eyes filled with tears as he tried not to cry

He looked to the heavens and started to pray

In the quiet country silence, I could hear the man say

Life is a river, I'll go with the flow

And where it will take me, the Lord only knows
