Within the River I will run
If even `gainst the flow
Refreshing spirit, body, mind
Nourishing the soul.

Within the River I will run
If even `gainst all odds
For the strength in which I run
Is not my own but God's.

Within the River I will run
If current be weak or strong
Pressing on to God's high call
Where my soul belongs.

Within the River I will run
Each day and all my life
For I am God's to do His will
If even in great strife.

Music - This is such a beautiful poem, I could see the river, the rapids, and His glorious arms holding tight.  Bonnie

Very well done! Liked the use of the words, had me "rushing" along with them...
