Rolling River God

I love Nichole Nordeman.  But this song is my favourite.  Rolling River God.  This song ministered to me so many times already and it still does.

Those people that irritate you daily?  They are shaping you so that you will be smoother in God's hand.  Let the lyrics of this song minister to you too.


  • Songwriters: Nichole Ellyse Nordeman
Rolling River God, little stones are smooth
Only once the water passes through
So I am a stone, rough and grainy still
Trying to reconcile this river's chill

But when I close my eyes and feel you rushing by
I know that time brings change and change takes time
And when the sunset come, my prayer would be this one
That you might pick me up and notice that I am
Just a little smoother in your hand

Sometimes raging wild, sometimes swollen high
And never have I known this river dry
The deepest part of you is where I want to stay
And feel the sharpest edges wash away

And when I close my eyes and feel you rushing by
I know that time brings change and change takes time
And when the sunset comes, my prayer would be just one
That you might pick me up and notice that I am
Just a little smoother in your hand

Rolling River God, little stones are smooth
Only once the water passes through
