Introduction:
G C
As I went out walking, on a fine summer day
D
Through hills and the valleys
G D
I soon lost my way
G C
Till I came to an old man, kneeling down by a stream
D G
Gazing in to the water, like he was lost in a dream
C G
In his hand was a picture, he clung to for life
A D
And his eyes filled with tears, as he tried not to cry
C G Em
As he looked to the heavens, he started to pray
C D G
In the quiet country side, I could hear the man say
G C
Life is a river, I'll go with the flow
D G D
And where it will take me, the Lord only knows
G C
but I miss you sweetheart, your kindness and love
G D G
But i Know one day, we'll sail away on God's ocean above
He said now young man, you're a stranger to me
