A River Runs Through

A river runs through
this hallowed ground
Southerly
homeward bound
under autumn leaves
and a sky so blue
from the hand of God
a river runs through

My two boys
are now grown men
and we will not pass
this way again
time is short
but the memories dear
and the river flows
away from here

Take my hand
show me the way
carry me home
free the weight
take my hand
and be my guide
carry me home
from the river side

Solo

I stand alone
at the water's edge
and a reverie
lingers in my head
Gabriel's horn
softly blows
and at my feet
the river flows

Take my hand
show me the way
carry me home
free the weight
take my hand
be my guide
carry me home
from the river side
Take my hand
show me the way
carry me home
free the weight
take my hand
be my guide
carry me home
from the river side
carry me home
from the river side
