The River

Parody of "The River" by Garth Brooks

Parody Lyrics by Monty Ray The CyberSaddle Tramp
(John 4:10; 7:37-39;Rev 21:6;22:1)

You know a life is like a river ever changin' as it flows
And a sinner's just a vessel that must follow where it goes
Trying to put his past behind him and never knowing what's in store
Makes each day a constant battle just to stay between the shores

But I will sail my vessel in waters that give life
Putting faith in Christ my savior ...who for me He died
And I will reach my destination if in Him I will abide
So I will sail my vessel where I know it won't run dry

Too many times we stand aside and let our witness slip away
And we put off 'til tomorrow what by then may be too late
Don't hide His love upon the shoreline and pray you're sanctified
But choose to chance God's rapids and dare to dance His tide

Yes I will sail my vessel in waters that give life
Putting faith in Christ my savior ...who for me He died
and I will reach my destination with Him I will abide
and I will sail my vessel where I know it won't run dry

And there's bound to be rough waters but He'll keep me from the fall
And with the good Lord as my captain I can make it through them all

Yes I will sail my vessel in waters that give life
Putting faith in Christ my savior ...who for me He died
and I will reach my destination when in Him I try
so I will sail my vessel where I know it won't run dry
yes I will sail my vessel where I know it won't run dry
His river won't run dry
