The river people know a lot about overcoming hardships, and going with the flow

lyrics

Sometimes life here is pretty easy
We just go with the flow
But if a drought comes, we know the outcome
It means we’ve got a lot of work to do.
We have to pick up our boat, move it to the side
And find another way to travel for a while.
Even though when the river’s low we feel the same
We have to rise up and recognise it will too one day

{Chorus}
Living on the rivers of resilience
They’re challenges to deal with everyday
Listen everybody can you feel this
We’ve got to work it out and you will find your way

Other times our trouble is the opposite
Too much rain brings the pain of flood
The water moves to fast for us to handle it
But we have to try our best because
If we don’t stay afloat things will only get worse
So we ride it out, just like we rehearsed
And when the danger’s past we bounce right back
And rebuild to get this houseboat back on track

{Chorus}
What if the river’s filled with rubbish? We clean it up and be more careful with our waste
What if the river’s run out of fish? We plan ahead to avoid that fate
Resilience is not just recovering from mishaps it’s knowing how to face your challenges now
And not leaving things to get worse for the future. We’re telling it to you!

{Chorus} End.

Because, as anyone with kids knows, you can never have enough lullabies in your repertoire of songs to sing to get 'em to sleep! And these songs are actually lovely, beautiful and soothing at that. Earl Leonard - Music for Kids!
