Mozart and Salieri at Unadilla
Our New Hymn (Like a Flowing River)
Like a flowing river, humbly to the sea
Lead us to be listeners, of community.
Find a way to help someone, on the foreign shore.
Love your neighbor near or far, whether rich or poor. Refrain
Waters when they’re flooding, filling us with fear
Come from the same elements, as do our tears
Let’s console our neighbors, turning to our Lord
Trusting in his guidance, grace will us afford. Refrain
Through the raging waters, kindness will prevail
Neighbor helping neighbor, our love_ will not fail
Sunshine follows raindrops, bringing peace to all
We are one community, our love will heed the call. Refrain
On to calming waters, like the peaceful swan
Rippling ever onward, grace our constant song.
With one drop of kindness, waves of hope will swell
Car-ry-ing love ever onward, in our hearts to dwell. Refrain
Refrain:
Rise and do what is good and be led by grace.
Seek justice and kindness for our human race.
Tune St. Gertrude
