We gathered at the river

We counted our blessings

Without a lot of stressing

God was present that day

He showed us the way

He removed every fear

He dried every tear

It didn’t take long

To see where we belong

And life got better

When we embraced it to the letter

As we gathered at the river

We thought about the past

All the moments we made last

The life lessons

That became heartfelt confessions

The unconditional love

That felt like heaven above

Every silent prayer

That told us God was there

The solid ground

That turned our lives around

The tender touch

That meant so much

And ultimate giver

That led us to the river
