God Is A River (Live) by Peter Mayer
In the ever-shifting waters of the river of this life
I was swimming, seeking comfort
I was wrestling (1)__________ to find
A boulder I could cling to, a stone to hold me fast
Where I let the (2)______________ waters
Of this river 'round me pass
And so I found an anchor, a blessed resting place
A trusty (3)________ 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 a river, swimmer
So let it go...
Still I clung to my rock tightly
With conviction in my arms
Never looking at the stream
To keep my (4)________ from thoughts of harm
But the river (5)________ on coming
Kept on tugging at my legs
Till at last my fingers faltered
And I was swept away
So I'm (6)__________ 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 (7)________ this song
God is a river, not (8)________ a stone
God is a wild, (9)____________ rapids
And a slow, meandering flow
God is a deep and narrow passage
And a peaceful, sandy shoal
God is a river, swimmer
So let it go
God is the river, swimmer
So let it go...
I was swimming, seeking comfort
I was wrestling (1)__________ to find
A boulder I could cling to, a stone to hold me fast
