Wild River

I was watching "Wild River," the 1960 movie starring Clifton Webb and Lee Remick the other night, and was struck by the theme music that plays at the beginning and end of the film.  Does anyone have any idea what it is and whether it's available anywhere?

According to IMDB, the score is by a fellow named Kenyon Hopkins, who did quite a few other scores for films like  like The Hustler and Twelve Angry Men. I found a listing for a single of his called 'Wild River', and while I can't say for sure I imagine this would be the opening and closing theme for the film. If you have Amazon Music, which I don't, it looks like you'd be able to stream the song.
