"
Moon River" is a song composed by
Henry Mancini with lyrics written by
Johnny Mercer. It received an
Academy Award for
Best Original Song for its first performance by
Audrey Hepburn in the
1961 movie Breakfast at Tiffany's. It also won
Mancini the 1962
Grammy Award for
Record of the Year and
Mercer the Grammy Award for
Song of the Year. Since its original performance, the song has been covered by many other artists.
It became the theme song for
Andy Williams, who first recorded it in
1961 and performed it at the
Academy Awards ceremonies in 1962. He sang the first eight bars at the beginning of his eponymous television show and named his production company and venue in
Branson, Missouri, after it.
Williams' version never charted, except as an LP track, which he recorded for
Columbia in a hit
album of 1962.
Cadence Records' president
Archie Bleyer disliked Williams' version, as Bleyer believed it had little or no appeal to teenagers.
The song's success was responsible for relaunching Mercer's career as a songwriter, which had stalled in the mid-1950s because rock and roll replaced jazz standards as the popular music of the time. The song's popularity is such that it has been used as a test sample in a study on people's memories of popular songs.
Comments about the song have noted that it is particularly reminiscent of Mercer's youth in the
Southern United States. An inlet near
Savannah, Georgia, Johnny Mercer's hometown, was named Moon River in honor of him and this song. -

This is how much God loved the world: He gave His Son, His one and only Son. And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in Him, anyone can have a whole and lasting life. God didn't go to all the trouble of sending His Son merely to
point an accusing finger, telling the world how bad it was. He came to help, to put the world right again.
Anyone who trusts in Him is acquitted; anyone who refuses to trust Him has long since been under the death sentence without knowing it. And why? Because of that person's failure to believe in the one-of-a-kind
Son of God when introduced to Him.
My beloved friends, let us continue to love each other since love comes from God.
Everyone who loves is born of God and experiences a relationship with God. The person who refuses to love doesn't know the first thing about God, because
God is love - so you can't know Him if you don't love. This is how God showed His love for us: God sent His only Son into the world so we might live through Him.
So love the
Lord God with all your passion and prayer and intelligence and energy.
Love others as well as you love yourself. There is no other commandment that ranks with these. -
Jesus Christ
