Tune: All For Jesus
(\'Holy Spirit, come confirm us\')
********
You swans, ducks, geese, at estuary
Here you gather patiently
Through each season that nature gives
By God\'s gift of life each lives
You do wait for morsels of bread
That you be by humans fed
We enjoy river-side meeting
Unto you some food we bring
Or birds gathered near the lock, they
There whether a sunshine day
Or may be clouds, rain, or shower
They faithful to show each hour
Peaceful scenes we do here observe
To settle soul, calm each nerve
God providing in creation
And to folk of each nation
Rivers ever ebbing, flowing
Its waters sustain each thing
That live there, a refuge, haven
And a solace unto men (mankind)
Flow on rivers, take your journey
Travelling on to the sea
Then returning whence you started
Ordered by God, He your Head
