Where Wanders The River

(verse 1)
Where wanders the River, my heart wanders with her.
Past tall pine and cedar, and strong sinsemilla.
?Round canyon and bluff, ?til my heart cries ?enough!?
And the River, she carries me home.
(verse 2)
Where wanders the River, her dreams wander with her.
A daughter of Shannon, and Danube?s companion.
Old willows in ranks shade and shelter her banks
When the River, she wanders alone.
(bridge)
Every ripple has the pow?r to astound.
And every moment in a lifetime?s
Revealed by her motion and sound.
(instrumental)
(verse 3)
Redeemer, forgiver, O deep-delving River.
Free-living, free-flowing, the future unknowing.
I?ll follow her still, let her run where she will,
?Til? the River, she tarries;
She carries me home.
