Mighty River

Mighty River

The river flows down to the sea,
Without me,
Without me.
Take me with you O’ mighty river!
Take me along upon your adventures as your waters rush and run,
Leap and gurgle,
And frolic along their way.
Show me where the fish swim and the birds nest,
Where the trees wave and the children play.
Whisper to me the secrets of your life and your people,
For if I cannot go with you,
Let me sit here by your side and listen to your stories.
