This is a beautiful river (brother) this is a beautiful stream
Tis is a beautiful river (sister) this is a beautiful dream
I know it flows through the mountains sometimes there's trouble and strife
This is a beautiful river the beautiful river of life
[ dobro - banjo ]
The river of life is a journey (brother) all of God's children must take
Sharing our moments of glory (sister) learning from all our mistakes
I know it flows through the mountains...
Everyone rides on the river (brother) sometimes it's deep and it's wide
If we don't cross over together (sister) meet you on the other side
I know it flows through the mountains...
Beautiful river of life
