Peace Like A River
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
He was not born a wanderer
The world has made him one
And in her turning turned her back
On her only son
Peace like a river
Descending like a dove
Oh, what more can he give her
When all he is love
Oh, can't they see he's not to blame
The blame I feel is mine
What can I do to help him through
I pray he'll find
Peace like a river
Descending like a dove
Oh, what more can he give her
When all he is love
Oh, mother, dear father
Look what my brother has done
And all for me
It brooke the heart
Of your only son
Peace like a river
Descending like a dove
Oh, what more can he give her
When all he is love
