Don't Try To Push The River (Just Hold On) C 2005 Richard Trevor Bassett Verse 1: She was standing by his graveside as they lowered him from sight She was thinking about his life time of working day and night Then her eyes turned up to heaven and she couldn't help but think God what have you done to me Sitting at the kitchen table for the first time all alone She finds a note in some flowers sitting by the phone And in that bunch of daisies Were words that made her tremble Words that made her understand Chorus: Don't try to push the river All you get is wet Don't try to hurry God along If he's not ready yet Just live your life the best you can Have faith in God and his great plan Don't try to push the river Just hold on, just hold on Verse 2: He was standing on a roof top ten stories from the ground Waiting for the perfect moment to let it all come down Stretched his arms right up to heaven as the tears rolled down his face And like a choir of angels He hears children singing And his life is forever changed Chorus: Don't try to push the river All you get is wet Don't try to hurry God along If he's not ready yet Just live your life the best you can Have faith in God and his great plan Don't try to push the river Just hold on, just hold on |
