Track 7 — Where the River Remembers (Intimate Hillson‑Unite ambient worship) Verse 1 Mary River waters, moving slow and deep, Carry all the memories that the town does keep; Old slipway shadows, Wharf‑Street quiet lane, Queens Park breeze that stirs the gum‑tree chain; I stand here in the twilight, feel the spirits near, Things that most folks pass and never stop to hear. The sun sinks low behind the trees along the bank, The river holds what time cannot out‑rank. Verse 2 From Tasmanian valleys to this Fraser shore, Every place I’ve wandered, every door I’ve opened more — I feel the hand that wove it all, the love that never ends, In the river’s quiet flowing, in the wind that sends Soft whispers through the dusk across the water’s face, Carrying peace and carrying grace. Pre‑Chorus 1 River holds the stories, land retains the mark, Light is shining even in the gathering dark; What the earth has kept through the years gone by, Lingers underneath the southern sky. Chorus Where the river remembers, where the shadows stay, Heaven’s peace is falling on this place today; In the quiet moments, in the wind’s soft call, God is here among us, holding one and all. Every wave, every tide, every quiet stream — Carries grace within the dream. Pre‑Chorus 2 When the night falls deep and the stars come out above, The river flows with everlasting love; It doesn’t rush, it doesn’t race, it moves its steady way, Carrying the memories into every day. Bridge The old slipway’s gone now, the shipyard smoke has cleared, But the stories still are living, still are here; They live within the river, within the earth and stone, Within the hearts of folks who call this place their home. We walk beside the water, we pause to listen well, To the quiet tales the river has to tell. Outro Where the river remembers… heaven’s peace is falling… Holding one and all…
