Rivers

Rivers There's a river of emotion that flows into the sea. And a river of devotion that's pouring out of me. Like sunshine breaking through the clouds in the middle of a storm. I'm coming, yes I'm coming. In my love I'll keep you warm. Like food is to a starving man who's not getting any younger. I'll fill you up and give you hope and drive away your hunger. Like a tiny boat that's lost at sea no help for them in sight. I'll reach for you I'll reach right through the darkest lonely night. Like a singer on an empty stage the crowd has come and gone. I'm standing still, I always will and I will cheer you on. Though multitudes might gather and shout and curse your name. It is I whose love won't die I'll love you just the same. Edwin C Hofert
