Lyrics:
Take me to your river
I wanna go
Oh, go, take me to your river
I wanna know
#LeonBridges #River #AustinCityLimits - Hudba
After my son was born, I remember holding him in my arms in a chair next to my wife's hospital bed. She reached across and gave me an earplug from her phone, and played this song to me for the first time. As I listened to it, I looked at this perfect child and felt an overwhelming sense of connection. I looked back at my wife with tears in my eyes, and she just smiled back at me. I will remember that moment as long as I live.
Damn dude I'm at work and just read this. Now I'm a mess. Baby boy due in May.
@@jakee5549 congratulations man. You'll do great.
Bro I read this while listening to the song. And I'm balling my eyes out. Take care☺☺☺☺
That’s the power of music man, beautiful story ❤️
Such a beautiful memory... pregnant myself and I get that connection with music and the life change that happens with your child.... It’s definitely very powerful. Congrats on your baby boy!
Otis Redding and Sam Cooke are smiling from above
Yes
yes!
YES!🔥
Amen
Alex Roman i do believe they do❤️🙏
My son passed 3 weeks ago. He knew he was dying and asked this song be played at his service. Now I know why. RIP son and we are playing this as requested. 😢
❤️❤️❤️
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏
😩😩😥😥😥💔💔🙏🏼
@@moanatamati4128 💔 thank you!
I feel your pain and know only too well what it is like to grieve for a child.
I too lost my son many years ago!😩💔
There are no words to describe the gut wrenching agony a family goes through at the loss of a child.
My faith and hope is in
The Lord Jesus now,to walk the narrow road,the long road of obedience to GOD that when this life is over,I and my family will be reunited with our son in whatever form and death will no longer have any power over GODs children.
My prayers and thoughts to you and your family🙏🏼💖
GOD bless.
"Surrender to the good Lord & he'll wipe your slate clean." Amen to that ❤ beautiful song..
Yes!!!
This is the good bottle of wine from 1920 that hasn't been opened until now.
Hygh Gawd perfect comment
Couldn’t have said it better🙌🏽
no better way to describe this!!
Beautifully put!
And shared with the closest of friends.
This is a young man with an old soul.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Brother the fact they may have been a lot of music to influence him at a young age, but he picked this fading genre and blessed it even more.
Just like me. After hearing this soul stirring, beautiful specimen of art. I hired a guitar coach to teach me how to try to recreate and relive such an amazing experience. Was not let down. As I sit here with a glass full of old bourbon and a heart filled with new love - Thank you Leon Bridges for helping me reach for a longtime goal. - JK
Johnny Depp quote: "People cry, not because they're weak. It's because they've been strong for too long."
ioo long for wat
That song will make you lose track of time and space. When it's over, you have to just step back, exhale, and try to grasp what just happened. One of the best songs ever.
Perfect description mate 👌
Beautiful.
Absolutely love what you said here.
Exactly right.
Nicely done
💯💯
Jesus Christ is with us all you don’t have to rush to him because he knows you will find him❤
i listen to Leon Bridges .........when i just feel like i can't take no more
I feel that. I hope you're doing well these days, Terry :)
What can’t you take no more???
🙏🏾🖤🙏🏾

Same.
His voice is like a good whisky.

so poison?
Best comment ever.
This was one of the very few songs that caught my mum's attention in her latter years. She would often wait to sing the chorus "Take me to your River, I wanna go" Mum RIP, I love and miss you so so much
Condolences. Hoping you heal.
@@dennisbrown7079 💌
This song helped me through my Momma's death. Love to you!
[Verse 1]
Been travelling these wide roads
For so long
My heart's been far from you
Ten thousand miles gone
[Refrain]
Oh, I wanna come near and give
Every part of me
But there's blood on my hands
And my lips are unclean
[Verse 2]
In my darkness I remember
Momma's words reoccur to me
"Surrender to the good Lord
And he'll wipe your slate clean"
[Chorus]
Take me to your river
I wanna go
Oh, go, take me to your river
I wanna know
[Verse 3]
Dip me in your smooth water
As I go in
As a man with many crimes, come up for air
As my sins flow down the Jordan
[Refrain]
Oh, I wanna come near and give you
Every part of me
But there's blood on my hands
And my lips are unclean
[Chorus]
Take me to your river
I wanna go
Oh, go, take me to your river
I wanna know
[Bridge]
I wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
Wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
Wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
I wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go (Hoo)
Wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go (Oh, yeah)
Wanna know, wanna know, wanna know (Hoo)
[Chorus]
Hoo, oh, take me to your river
I wanna go
Lord, oh, please let me know
Take me to your river
I wanna know
This song is special to me. When my husband was passing away, he kept saying he could see the River and that he just wanted to go to that River. A few days after he passed, I heard this on satellite radio as I was traveling to my daughter’s. I had to pull over to really listen to this and made me sob. Beautiful song.
may he rest in eternal peace
❤️
Blessings to you both.
Your husband meant for you to hear this song
May he rest easy now.
Ten years ago I wanted to be taken to the river. You see.....I lost a brother to police brutality. He was about to graduate from college with a biology degree in two months, but he was taken from me during a stop light infraction. They beat and tasered him to death. When they did an autopsy on his body, they said it looked like he had been in a big accident. This song brought me to that place of when I begged God to take his place. Take ME to the river.... I'll go. But then God allowed me to meet my wife, who helped me to live. I talked with God and found out He still had a purpose and a plan for my life...so I live today walking pass the river, watching the ship go by, remembering Pierre. Gone but not forgotten. Rest in peace baby brother. See you on the other side of the river.
my condolences to this terrible brutality you and your family had to endure. and sadly many others as well :'( i wish you well, bless your heart
Continue to be strong..... Continue your journey
Sorry for you loss. You'll see him soon
my prayers with you brother
That is beyond words, good for you for keeping on going, you must be incredibly strong
I love the way he says Jordan. It’s a fantastic nod to the southern black population. I’m obviously not black but have grown up in the rural South and am fortunate enough to have had many strong black men as mentors over the years.
This man can sing!!!! There's no black, there's no white, it's just damn good music!!!!
Guys like leon bridges, Hozier, and chris stapleton gives me faith real music can make a come back. I absolutely love this. Music is supposed to make you feel something.
Let me add Jacob Banks real quick
bon hiver and Maggie rogers too :)
Great examples!!
@Meli Shimek and Dermot Kennedy
Matt Corby mate
His backup singer is absolutely stunning... SING QUEEN!!!
Presuming you're speaking about her singing, yes, that opening verse she's doing these micro harmonies that match his lead vocal perfectly. It's astounding. She's amazing.
Thought that was a King
@@AP-xq3jmit is. Playing the guitar. How's your dads?
YUP!!
Anyone know her name?
In recovery for the past 2 months and I was riding the train to go see my daughter and this video came on and I started to cry and the more I tried to stop the harder the tears fell. I'm surrendering to my higher power every day and my slate is wiped clean one day at a time.
We do recover
This was the very last song my big brother showed me before he passed away.
I'll see you at the river when its my time, in the meantime I'll make sure to catch you when you visit me in my dreams.
Rest in Peace Tony
who is the woman singing with him she is awesome
also
Her name is Brittni Jessie
My thoughts exactly. I recognize her from Jacob Banks' performances also.
I forgot her name but she has music out
@@terranceellerbe9022 Her name is Brittni Jessie
Mwah
The most beautiful song I've heard in a very long time. Enough said.
Robert Manley mind blown .Thank God!
Robert Manley yess indeed !
Robert Manley listen to domonic Haynes sing it
I've listened to this song, but I don't think I have really listened to it until now. He speaks of his sins, blood on his hands, and unclean lips, and of coming to the river to be made clean. That's Gospel. This man is versed in the verses of God's word
Yessir.. but it's a new rendition of a very old Christian song.. transcends our differences.
This song helped me get through the last year of my sisters life. Such a beautiful song I took as my sister being wash cleaned of her cancer before entering the pearly gates.
Same here
@@pbcfisher3206 oh that makes sense because this version doesnt sound the exact same as the one played on Suits the tv show, and the refrence to the jordan river as well. i love it it was great compliment to the show
And they said soul was dead. Man this man’s incredible
Just had my 1st dance with my 2 year old daughter 💃 to this song.
YES!!!!!!!! There is something called the Akashic Records under Hindu/Buddhist belief, the Christian counterpart would be the Book of Life (Rev 20:15)...
It is all THOUGHTS, ACTIONS & DESIRES every living being 'registers' as a record for others to see or review. I'm sure when other sentient beings see your dance with your 2yr old will be delighted...
👏❤
That's beautiful.
god lbess you and your daughter may y’all live a beautiful life ❤️
BEAUTIFUL!! ♥️
As a troubled man, this song brings tears to my eyes every time
We are all troubled honey. God bless
Braeden Fields yeah that’s a truth
I pour peace into your soul bro.
South Africa is with you
Braeden Fields i hope all is well with you friend
Life is an endless journey of overcoming.
Jesus is coming to save the world, he loves you and wants your heart ❤️
Made my dad listen to this song a few years back because it really got through my soul in a way that I never thought anything ever could. My dad's music has always been important to me because it was the only bridge we really have to express our emotions, we're both introverts and talking wasn't really our thing. He would play his music to me growing up, but this was that one song, the song that I shared with him instead of him sharing his stuff with me. It was such a special moment. Everytime it would play in the car we would just be silent to listen to the whole thing and it felt like a telepathic connection of what we were feeling.
He passed a few months ago and I still think of him as I listen to this song over and over again. I miss him dearly.
He will be with you forever. God Bless you. Sorry for your temp loss.
Sending blessing your way I’m sorry about loss
You may miss him but just remember he’s always with you buddy!
Sorry for your loss - such a beautiful song
Rest easy
I lost my mother in November of last year. She was only 47. We used to sing this song together when we would Skype some nights. It means so much more to me now that's she's gone. Missing you extra today mom!
Anthony Tamplin shell always be with you. Stay strong.
stay strong bruv ❤️❤️
I’m so sorry for your loss ❤️ you are so strong and highly favored
love
Hugs for you xx
For some reason, I can never listen to this song without almost breaking into tears. So beautiful.
EXACTLY!!!! I always cry
Same here brother
Jeffrey Kipp i can feel the sadness in his voice but cause I’m not understanding all what he’s saying...I enjoy the song...don’t cry and never forget...the (good) change is gonna come..
Same brother, same.
I cry every single time
reading everyone’s comments about how this song has tied into their lives is making me so emotional right now. the human connection i feel in this comment section is unworldly.
" in my darkness i remember , Mama's words reoccurr to me surrender to the good Lord ..........best advise ever ..........i had a praying mother , a mother that knew only the good Lord could fix me .....ty mama.... I'll see you one day , in heaven !!!!!
I'm SO fashionably late to this party.
Me too
Same
Noooo! Meee
Same
Me too..
how to ease anxiety : listen to leon bridges.
Yes. He blesses me every time I hear his voice. ❤️
Yup
Just saw him live… one of the best concert I’ve ever attended!!!
My son(11) showed me Leon Bridges. Moments when you know you did something good
Is he singing about Christ? cuz I keep coming back. I love Christ.
Yes, it's a great gospel song.
I never want this song to end.
Been traveling these wide roads for so long
My heart’s been far from you
Ten-thousand miles gone
Oh, I wanna come near and give ya
Every part of me
But there's blood on my hands
And my lips aren’t clean
In my darkness I remember
Momma’s words reoccur to me
"Surrender to the good Lord
And he’ll wipe your slate clean"
Take me to your river
I wanna go
Oh, go on
Take me to your river
I wanna know
Tip me in your smooth waters
I go in
As a man with many crimes
Come up for air
As my sins flow down the Jordan
Oh, I wanna come near and give ya
Every part of me
But there's blood on my hands
And my lips aren’t clean
Take me to your river
I wanna go
Go on,
Take me to your river
I wanna know
I wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
I wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
Wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
Wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
Take me to your river
I wanna go
Lord, please let me know
Take me to your river
I wanna know
The worst most generic cliche ridden lyrics, it's embarrassing
@Sailorperson listen there's something at stake here. Good artists never use cliches. These words say nothing. They are so generic that they have no meaning and that means the artist doesn't have to take responsibility. The more personal and specific you get the more responsibility you have to take. Specificity, specificity, specificity....not complexity. If you can't be specific , if you can't share the fresh images from your own life shut the fuck up so we don't have to wade through this sludge to find the good shit. Time is too short
@@MrNines-lh1fg Man, I honestly don't think you know what good music is.
@@stevewalter9998 I know thanks Steve. You can't change the direction of the wind but you can adjust your sails buddy, keep listening to that stuff
@@MrNines-lh1fg not sure what you are meaning exaxrly, but i think its a great song about redeeming oneself. It doesn't need to be complicated and confusing. He just wants, to be redeemed! Enough said
Has got to be said Leon looks a million bucks too. The blazer, hair, everything. I admire this vintage gentleman attire and demeanour.
My grandmother went to hospice today. They gave her 7-10 days before she passes. This was the first song that I thought of.
One of the deepest songs ever written. Thank you, Father.
TheAntiSmug amen.
You’re welcome, Son
@@treepeenbawlz1934 👏🤣
AMEN!!
amen
I can't believe REAL MUSIC still exists! Leon is so cool.
I know what you mean. But it's still very much alive at least for me perhaps that's because I'm from the south side of Chicago. But good gospel is from what I've noticed starting to resurface with Mavis Staples doing her tours
+CoopyKat Damn u was right "real music" really exist XD
+CoopyKat it's out there..just have to seek it out...reverbnation dot com and nodepression dot com...
+Gary B Thanks!
I agree also I’m from 2019
I don’t have a deep backstory. The first time hearing this was 2 days ago, I was on shrooms. The high had just hit its apex and this song came on. It felt like love, that’s the best way to describe the feeling. If you’ve ever been in love then you know. If you haven’t I pray you do one day.
First time I heard leon I was on shrooms....Texas Sun, what an experience:) found river a few weeks later and just played it over and over
I think that’s just what shrooms feel like if you’re in the right mental state. I know that feeling. Love and connected to everything.
My husband passed away at 44 yrs old after 60 days of fighting for his life in the hospital… I held his hand and prayed at the moment he passed and played this song … then took a 2hr train ride home to tell our daughter that daddy wasn’t coming home… nothing seems real anymore 💔
I can’t believe I have to do the rest of this life without him … 😖
It heart is broken for you, please know that I will hold you both so dear in my prayers,I wish you every bit of strength to hold your head high and see the days through.
Sending my love and support 💞 xxxx
@@karla8276 thank you for your compassion and kindness ♥️🙏🏾♥️
I pray you find strength in the hope that one day you will all be together again. In spirit and truth.
God is still holding you in His hands if you are His. Blessings...
@@annamineer2521 thank you for your kindness ♥️
This guy will make it BIG! There is still a space, a massive one, for real soul music. The kind of old. This guy is indeed an old soul. Add the beautiful lady and her beautiful voice, we're treated to something new and refreshing. Also love his choice of guitars.
Absolutely! He's been huge for several years. Such of a refreshing talent.
I could not agree more this lady has a beautiful voice too
the audio on this is sick - kudos to the sound guy too
He's not strumming that Rhythm. I doubt if his guitar is even turned up. . . (great Singer, though)
@@denisdickinson3537 he is playing.
"Submit yourself to the Good Lord, He will wipe your slate clean"
That is beautiful!
His Mercy is from age to age for those who fear Him!
Seems like an abusive relationship that you must fear someone in order for their love..
I've been asking myself why the prophets from old religions ask for man to SURRENDER, TO REPENT....
I've had the realization that Surrendering and Repenting MUST BE AN ACT DONE BEYOND THE THINKING, LINEAR MIND.
How can this be done or achieved? I'm not sure but there must be a way.
It's just a metaphor. Leon Bridges is an atheist.
@@shivtim
I don't know if he is an atheist or not and whatever he choses, his choice.
What I'm sure of is that it is not a metaphor. He WAS RAISED as a religious individual otherwise he wouldn't reference choirs and gospells.
Again, as an adult he may choose whatever he feels but his lyrics are clearely referring to what he heard during his upbringing.
Let's divert for a bit now and focus on the MESSAGE ITSELF...
Why submitting to the 'good lord' is what's being pushed?
We humans have TWO MINDS, one mind is an IMPOSITION. A FAKE entity that generates the EGO. The ego would never ever surrender to another ego, EVEN IF IT KNEW THE OTHER EGO WAS A BETTER CHOICE...
When we go deep (in meditation or through a ceremony with a power plant such as ayahuasca or peyote or magic shrooms) we TURN OFF THE IMPOSED MIND. At that point you REALIZE that your mind, your life companion, is NOT YOU.
This is not a new concept, its been written everywhere. Here is an example from a non religious reference:
"Yoga is the stilling of the fluctuations of the mind... Once achieved, the entity abides in its own nature..."
Sutras of Patanjali 1.1-3
Even massive control systems like movies talk about but no one pays attention to it, here is another example:
"Morpheus: It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth.
Neo: What truth?
Morpheus: That you are a slave, Neo. Like everyone else you were born into bondage. Into a prison that you cannot taste or see or touch. A PRISON FOR YOU MIND....”
The Matrix movie.
So be careful the 'lord' you choose.
@@daniluchison I haven't seen the Matrix so I don't get the reference, can you use a different movie? I've seen the Land Before Time.
I was born as a pair of ears for the universe to listen to music like this
I was born with glass bones and paper skin. Every morning I break my legs, and every afternoon I break my arms. At night, I lie awake in agony until my heart attacks put me to sleep. This song makes me feel better.
The comments 🥰😭🥰😭🥰😭
I don't care how much chaos they throw at our subconscious... This planet is the most beautiful place in our known universe, we still have the power to connect and vibe together 🖤
Love you 🥰💜
@@hope6534 love you 🖤
The comments are so calming to my soul
🙏
🙌I just love this and everything you said!! ❤ Sometimes we just have to focus on the good. This is the good stuff. 🌅
Yesterday was the 45th anniversary of my brother drowning. We were a year and six days apart. Yesterday morning was Sunday. unaware it was June 27th, I was sitting in the shade praising God as that is how I attend church. Listening to a song about Gods love this song popped in my mix. I had never heard it. I have had God show me many times that my brother called out to him in his struggle in the water and that we would someday be reunited. I have heard his voice and his death is what led me to salvation through Jesus Christ. I thought as the song played, "This song reminds me of the attitude my brother had the night before he drowned." He had been in trouble with the law quite a bit the last year of his life. It was only later I realized it was the very day same day 45 years earlier that he had gone to the river and learn to "know." Thanks Leon for letting God use your talent to speak to a little brother that also came to "know". Gods love is not easily understood by us, but ALL things work to the good of those that love him!
Just stumbled across this comment. God bless you
This son is a deeply spiritual capture of all it means to be human.
My daughter was born a week ago. This song reminds me of her. Her name is River.
I love how he sounds just like the studio version
Amazing... he is a real artist, there aren’t many like him around anymore ❤️
That's not a woman singing, that's an angel.🙌
he sound like a young sam cooke
totally agree.
Yes
Excatly what I said when I first heard this song
Sure does
That's it! His sixties vibe. YAAASSSSS - so refreshing to hear this from a young man.
With everything that's happening right now, this hits differently.. :(
EXACTLY!!!!! It's like he took all our pain and used it to line the words.
im a devout atheist but this song makes me wanna find good. Amazing Leon.
This is the difference between a young artist who can actually sing, and so many others who rely on auto-tune.
Lying on me bed eyes closed listening to this song, don't know why tears well up in my eyes , can feel my soul saved.
Richard Leishangthem exactly how I listened to it... it makes you go to a different dimension
Its how my heavy heart has fallen asleep many times.. Take me to your river..
i do the same
This is easily one of the best written songs in the last 10 years
This song has moved my spirit and my love of my life's spirit. Immediately heard this song and we both looked at each other and said this is our wedding song. So Moved we decided since the first place we went to on a whim was the river at sunset to skip rocks from a piece of land that goes out into he center. We knew then we were soulmates and the heart knows when the search is over. So we are planning our intimate wedding at sunset on that very same spot next to a tree we call the lovers tree that has initials of lovers over time. Ours are now engraved there as well. Some would think this isn't a wedding song but...to us it's everything. Simple how the souls connect with what god has created all around us. The sky a canvas like God painted it just for us to marvel at. The theme a Hawaiian/Hippie one with lanterns in the lovers tree and tiki torches along the isle's path. To complete the ceremony us getting baptized in the very same water. The lyrics hit home loosing our way through this thing called life yearning to be free. Alot of time we spent apart felt like 10,000 miles gone. We aren't perfect we've risen from the ashes of our past. And if it never comes to pass I will never forget that beautiful river that woke up our souls.
I also want this as a wedding song, I want to walk toward my love as this song plays and a raging river is our backdrop! It’ll happen!
I’ll manifest it
Who’s here from the military? Especially my brothers and sisters from the war in the Middle East? We take each other through the river, and I’m glad we can go I love you all.
my emotions run high listening to this song as I think about my son who was been incarcerated for 8 long years.. and how he has come to know god.. and how I wait for his return.. I will wait patiently as god does for us..
I can feel the emotions that will overcome you on that day. A mother's love for their children is the most powerful force on the planet. I hope that day comes soon. Love
I am a man who has been deprived of his children for 8 long years as well, though literally, I've done nothing wrong. Just a bad time to be a man, that's all. But you and I will know that reunion day of the future with our children just as sure as Christ waits to reunify with us in our own time. Stay strong lady. This is not all there is....
This song is timeless. It makes you feel so many things. It breaks you down and then it builds you back up again. His soulful voice like a soft wave throughout, then she comes in with a tone like a set of soft chimes... it's just magical. I will never ever get sick of listening to this song.
1 John 4:18 “Ye are of god, little children, and have overcome them:because greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world.”
Thinking of my father . He been back and fourth to the hospital. He getting old docs say his organs r failing dialysis not working … hope I get a chance to get him home to show him this song . Hopefully it heals him…..
He has that 60’s look and sound, he’s most definitely talented and intriguing.
I first listened to this song in May of this year. I returned home to my family home in England. I had returned to quarantine as the entire world had gone into lockdown. In the months previous I had been travelling and attempting to figure out who I am as a person. Whilst in India I began to realise that I did not like who I had become. Due to the global pandemic my travel was cut short and I was stuck with the awful feeling that I would never be able to work on my flaws and was therefore destined to return to my old ways. One afternoon I had been arguing with my Parents and decided to take a walk. I put my earphones in and walked up to the top of a hill not too far from my house. I sat at the top and this song began to play as I watched the sun set (a cliché, I know). It was from that evening that I realised that this was to be the most important summer of my life and I am now a completely different person. I forgave myself for my past wrongdoings and worked hard to set myself on what I strongly believe is the right path. I owe a lot to this song.
You have a future & you are loved
@@Machconsults thanks man! Update: I lost 30kg and moved to Amsterdam to pursue my dream of owning a cafe here! Things are going super well and I have just moved into my first apartment with my Girlfriend (who I met here). We plan to travel together this winter!
When he says "trust in the good Lord and he will wipe your slate clean. It sends chills through out my body, like the spirit is here with me. I have played this song now atleast 10 times, on repeat. And every time the verse is sung it hits me. In my core!! Since posting this comment my life has changed drastically. My future mother in law passed just before Christmas. Just months after her daughter and I lost our child to a miscarriage. Not long after that she left me. Lord, idk what your plan is for me, but I believe that it is for good. I'm trusting you to right this ship that's quickly sinking. I have but one brother left here in earth, and we rarely speak. So losing her and her mom impacted me greatly in a negative way. I'm confused, hurt, scared, and yeah I cry. I'm a man and I cry. Please help me Lord👑🙏❤️
My momma talking to me from the grave I swear.
Most humans don't realize that there is a good lord and a bad lord BUT... the bad lord has the upper hand on this planet as the matrix he/it set up, it is all rigged for us humans to bow down to the bad lord.... yes, FROM THE MOMENT WE ARE BORN... through visuals, sounds, words, food, clothing, music, schooling, friends, family, society, etc etc etc...
Beautiful !!!
@@nickgermanic8505there is A Good LORD The One Who Is The One Who Was And The One Who Was To Come The Almighty Jesus Christ
So this song hits much different now, I sent it to my what was soon to be mother in law. She absolutely loved it!! She played it over and over like I did when I first heard it. She passed away just before Christmas, and not long after that my fiance left me, so the lil boy I played step dad to for almost 7 years and now it's all gone. Praying for God's wisdom and guidance I guess. I don't even feel like this is life, how can this be real. I was once the happiest man alive, but now find myself wishing I wasn't here anymore. I know God HAS TO HAVE A REASON FOR ALL THIS. Just not sure I'll ever get it😔
I'm not one to comment or jump on a band wagon, but this...THIS....this beautiful man singing this beautiful song stops me dead every time I hear it. I'm sobbing as I stare into my computer, mesmerized. Every word, every strum of the guitar, the gorgeous woman harmonizing, everything about this performance.....It's just magical.
So refreshing to hear real soul. With all the watered down bullshit and mumble rap the kids of today are listening to, this young man has it figured out. Straight class, cool, soul, and heart.
100×infinity% you are true..👍👍👍
David Hudson well said.🙏🏽
Just beautiful and soul touching🥰

Well I can safely say I'm not apart of that kid generation listening to that BS. I'd much rather listen to Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Marvin Gaye etc than today's shit👌
The fact that there’s 425 people on the planet that don’t like or at the very least don’t appreciate the talent is just sad.
You gotta be kidding me I just now stumbled on this. Dope
When a song can slow your breathing.
Outstanding.
I said the exact same thing as I listened I caught myself holding my breath
It’s impossible to find something this stripped down and this beautiful nowadays
“Surrender to the good LORD and he’ll wipe your slate clean.” 🙏🏼
I keep coming back to this song for a few reasons. 1. It's dope! 2. It's literally the word of God.
When someone makes fun of the toughness in millennials, I play them this song. As classic as blues and pain can be.
Instant classic.
Mario Gospel too💕
When I fall apart, this song and performance helps me feel whole again.
Please tell my family to play this song on my funeral when the casket is being lowered or make it even better by having him there perform it I'm sure that i would even hear him on my way to my last home🥺😭
"Dip me in your smooth waters
I go in
As a man with crimes, come up for air
As my sins flow down to Jordan"
That's good stuff. He's talking to Jesus.
This would never be in the mainstream. Most people can't FEEL this. If you're listening to this, you have beautiful taste.
Sometimes the Lord gives us things we don’t deserve...
If my wife doesn't play this at my funeral, I'll be livid.. Can't think of another song, audio or perfection with connecting emotions.. the Candace and patience.. LOVE LOVE LOVE.
If she doesn’t, I’ll come sing it. Lots of people be leaving early though.
Found this song when I was sad , it molded into something I needed .
My cousin kept playing this song last year over and over just a few days to his death. He passed July 4 2019. This song gave him some sort of comfort before his passing. Now when I hear it I always think of him. It makes me cry sometimes too. R.I.P Tavarease Hamilton. I love you always and forever!!!
Rest in Paradise Tavarease 💙
RIP Tavarease 💜

Songs like these are channeled. He’s a conduit. Here to bring an energy.

I miss mine also, but we will see them again and they are truly free! Rest in peace dad!
This wonderful young man deserves all the recognition, he has that old skool, soulful, timbre that can't be replicated.
This should have 7 billion views!
"And he shall be like a Tree planted by the Rivers of Water....." Psalms Chapter 1
C. Jones yielding much fruit! God is good, his mercy is endless.
People can keep trying to throw the good Lord out of music.. he will always come back. This is like a modern Sam cook.
Amen brother
Music is such a powerful force, this man is amazing.
