Jacquelyn Brown - Troubadour Harpist

River of God (Thames)

music & lyrics © 1992 Jacquelyn Brown
5:36 min / track 15 / CD: Awakening...


When you walk on the banks
of the River Thames
seeking comfort and tranquility
you'll come home with a peace
only nature can give
Mother Earth's morning gift
unto thee.

Oh, river of God, where the goslings
and ducklings float by.
Oh, river of God, where the wind
and your harmony fly.

When you jog on the banks
of the River Thames
you'll see chipmunks and
squirrels scurry by.
As your heart races on
to the beat of the sun
singing birds flying high in the sky.

Oh, river of God, where the wind
and your breath set you free.
Oh, river of God, wind your life
giving force throughout me.

When you bike on the banks
of the River Thames
there'll be trilliums and
trees by the shore.
As you speed with the wind
toning muscles within,
yet your body and mind echos "more."

Oh, river of God, heal my body
my mind and my soul.
Oh, river of God, may your wisdom
and peace be my goal.

So then walk on the banks
of the River Thames
and feel comfort and tranquility
you'll come home with a peace
only nature can give
Mother Earth's morning gift
unto thee.

Oh, river of God, where the goslings
and ducklings float by.
Oh, river of God, where the wind
and your harmony fly.
