“Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away”
Down the mountain the river flows
And it brings refreshing wherever it goes
Through the valleys and over the fields
The river is rushing and the river is here
The river of God sets our feet a-dancing
The river of God fills our hearts with cheer
The river of God
Fills our mouths with laughter
And we rejoice for the river is here
The river of God is teeming with life
And all who touch it can be revived
And those who linger on this river's shore
Will come back thirsting for more of the Lord
Up to the mountain we love to go
To find the presence of the Lord
Along the banks of the river we run
We dance with laughter
Giving praise to the Son - Andy Park, Mercy/Vineyard Publishing
"Look! Nature is overflowing with the grandeur of God!" - John Muir
Spectacular Riverfront Location
