Beautiful River Of Life
Tom T. Hall
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
