about

'River Running' essentially looks at two elements of nature (man and water) and illustrates how similar they are in life’s journey. Personally, this was an amazing creative journey, so much so that I wrote four blogs following the creative process.

lyrics

Water vapor falling from the sky, an infant stream
Flowing gently down the mountainside, forming nature’s seam
Fold into the ground, echo history’s sound

You, you, you, you’re a river running
You, you, you, you’re a river running, running to the sea

Years you journeyed far across the land and stayed your course
Even stormy times you never could have planned for, never took you from this source
Deep inside of you, spirit shining true

You, you, you, you're river running
You, you, you, you’re a river running

Those who force their man-made creed
Would have you bend if not believe
Try to cut you down to size
Which only makes your waters rise
Neither rancor nor remorse for those who try to change your course

You, you, you, you’re a river running
You, you, you, you’re a river running

River is your name, blood pouring through your veins
Flowing wildly to your heart where only goodness starts
You’re splintering the ground where lie the fallen sounds
Streaming are your hands that reach out to the empty echoes of the faithless

River running free
River running free
