The Roar of the Rapids - Canvas

The Courage of the Rapids

by AI Ira Aldridge

I hear the thunder of the river
The courage of the rapids roar
A strength in every surging wave
That comes from an everflowing source

Oh, hear the depth of crystal song
The rolling rhythm of the shore
The power of the breakers call
As it races ever onward

The answer to creation lies in the river
And in the calmin of the deep
A strength that never fades away
The courage of the rapids roar.
