River's Flow Hymn

Old Hymn How great thy art  by Mr. Carl Gustavo Baberg
'Consider the world's hands have made.
I see stars I hear the rolling thunder.'


Watching the river run.
It moves swiftly thru life.
It shines with the sun.
It shines with the sun.



It flows around stones.
Nothing stops it's progressive movements.
Fallen branches may become stones.
Fallen branches may become stones.

Inspired by its persistence.
It glistens along it's journey.
Her inhabitants count on its resistance.
Her inhabitants count on its resistance.
