Water forever flows smooth and clear
It trickles and runs to all who hear
Oh the river bends, it blows, it shines
It twinkles and reflects the glistening signs
Those bodies, the lights ever dance and tell
The story of Ruth and Boaz, with ringing wedding bells
Ruth was alone in the dark of her life
Her people were lost and buried in strife
She clung to her mother, her faith, a hope
That someday her river would bend and blow
And praying so they would no longer mope
The heavens parted with angels singing, go
So Ruth traveled on, a light on her path
She stumbled upon a lush green lawn
fearful of a rich man’s greedy wrath
till out walked kindness, a shining pawn
Boaz was a wealthy man, yet just and kind
He cared for his servants, leaving no one behind
Ruth submit, serving Boaz with love
Her river had curved in the shape of a dove
Boaz looked upon his servant Ruth
He looked in her eyes and saw the truth
In that moment their love joined hand
And upon stairs of light they reached God’s land
Water forever flows smooth and clear
It trickles and runs to all who hear
Oh the river bends, it blows, it shines
It twinkles and reflects the glistening signs
