River of Love

[Layman Bairn]

So much undiscovered beauty
     All around River of Love
You have known us along your winding courses
     You know where you’re going ‘cause you’re already there

Flowing has made you wide and deeper
     And the stones have all worn round
Flowing has kept you from freezing in winter
     When the leaves have all fallen down

   And you rise up in the springtime
   Your water brings new life
   You supply the needs in the valley
   You are the secret of life

As you flow through the desert, where nothing will grow
             There’s always life along your shores
To revive the worn and weary pilgrim
             Holy Spirit we are yours, we are yours, we are yours

So beautiful,

I will come back and read this over and over again.

I can see life experience you have had through this poem.

Patience is one, learning to lean on God is another.

Understanding that hard things don't last, because God

washes them away.

Thank you
