Johnny Cash & June Carter - Far Side Banks of Jordan live

[@MsDimaio]

And June was waiting for him...... and they will be in paradise with our savior forever. "Well done my good and faithful servant".~ Jesus

[@abigailmorin5981]

One of my most favorite songs by Johnny and June. Love it... the part that really gets me is the part where June says that she will be the first to cross and when every time I hear the chorus "I'll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan, I'll be sitting drawing and when I see you coming I will rise up with a shout and come running through the shallow water reaching for your hand." It always reminds me of when Johnny died a few months later and they met together in heaven..... Such a sweet couple they were. RIP JOHNNY AND JUNE CASH.

[@darbydupree4056]

I can remember when I first heard this, I cried and cried. Too bad I didn't discover John and June until after their passing. R.I.P. Johnny and June. I wonder what you are doing today in heaven.....

[@ericvantassell6809]

thankfully their music is still around

Same I wish I was alive when they were alive

This song has a special significance for me, for the good Lord gave it to me as a sign. My mother died on a Thursday in 2016, at 86. (This is Mrs. Rick speaking.) I asked for a sign that she was saved and in heaven. Then, being the faithful and patient person I am, by Sunday I'd given up. So I went to church. Every song the choir sang was about going to heaven - I'll Fly Away, etc. I sat and snivelled. Then a pair of gals went up to the front and said there'd be a special performance that evening, and here was a little taste of it - and they sang this song. I rushed to the ladies' room where my sobs weren't quite so audible, because I knew that my Lord had heard and answered me, and my mom would be waiting in heaven. But that wasn't all of it. I flew home for her memorial mass, and there was a coffee hour in the church basement after. I'd asked if I could share something with the group. I told them the little story of my request for a sign, and God's answer. But then I said I had realized that the sign wasn't just for me, but for my dad also. i told him that God's grace and salvation are a gift and can't be earned. But you have to reach your hand out and take that gift. That it's like being charged with a crime and the judge says "Guilty!" And then He gets down from the bench, pays your fine, and says "You've been pardoned, your debt is paid, and you're free to go'. Now my dad had some history with courtrooms. His eyes were focused on me like a laser as I spoke. I then pointed out that Mum would be waiting for him on those banks, and that he'd better make good, because he knew better than to make that woman mad! Everybody laughed but my dad. He couldn't speak, due to a stroke, but he heard me. And I'm sure he'll be waiting for me and the family on that far side bank of Jordan.

In loving memory of Melanie Renee, my wife of 31 years. 08-31-1965 / 04-02-2020. I found a CD of unnamed Gospel singers with this song on it she had left for me in her top dresser drawer. It brought so much comfort to know she's waiting for me. At times, it brought me to my knees, begging to join her right then & there. With the panic of Covid 19 just beginning, we weren't allowed to have a large gathering for a funeral so we waited until her birthday weekend to celebrate her life & I went all out. I rented a banquet hall in our downtown historic district & hired a Gospel Trio to perform for us. The delay gave Latter Rain enough time to learn this song & add it to their playlist. Now every time they take the stage they share this song & our story so that others can find hope & comfort from it also. Latter Rain even used it as the theme for their latest CD & it's become Melanie's legacy. I can't wait to see her running through the shallow waters reaching for my hand.

[@pixiewillow2641]

I'm so sorry for your loss! I hope you continue to find hope and comfort in the years to come. All the best

[@maramaxwell2687]

This was sang at my great grandmothers funeral today. She loved the Lord more than anything, and her husband was a close second. I know the moment she left her earthly body that my papi (who died about 15 years ago) was reaching for her hand and Jesus had the other. Thank you God for taking my Grammie Grace home. She was ready for you.

[@DChristina]

I've loved Johnny Cash and The Carter Family for 50 years! Beautiful people💕 And nice to see women who age gracefully & naturally.

[@ruth4666]

I can’t stop watching this it’s so beautiful!! This is exactly how it was when Johnn arived in heaven ❤️

[@rightpatch1]

Uncanny, especially when June sings that she feels she will be first, and she was !! But, he followed her closely, and he knew it would be close; he said it a lot !!

[@uglymoon78]

That feeling proved to be right, June! You were the first to cross. R.I.P. both of you. Hard to see this without chokin' up.

[@ericvantassell6809]

oh damned right about the choking up part

[@henryjordan9453]

I cry when I hear this song

[@Penina1956]

This is on June's last album, "Press On", released in 2003 shortly after her death. Johnny took a demo to the hospital room in a boom box and told her she had made a good record, one that would live on. He played it, but wasn't sure she heard it; she never regained consciousness. (Info from one of Johnny Cash's interviews.)

[@hallowedbemaiden]

My late Father raised me on Cash. Hearing this brings tears to my eyes

[@cupcake168]

I wish I had a love like they have. So touching, so fulfilled. June & John, God bless you.

[@benniesweat9848]

Cupcake168 I think of my wife when I when I see anything about John and June, my wife and I have been married 43 years, was supposed to be 63 years.

My favorite gospel song. Thank you

[@JoAnnHassler]

I love this song it's so nice to see them singing it at the age that it was recorded. Thank you so sweet

[@DuKeZPLoT2215]

My grandmother passed away in 2010 and this was the song she and my grandfather shared. Right now, in March of 2014, my grandfather is closing in on his last days on this earth. This song makes me cry, not out of sadness, but out of joy that this is something two amazing and steadfast people in my life had experienced through their marriage. And it. Is. Beautiful. Thank you.

[@missywiley3140]

My paternal grandfather also passed in 2014, but it was unexpected

[@TheRobert2254]

[@john6218att]

who would have ever thought that was the way it would happen for them in life, when I heard of June's passing I knew John wouldn't be far behind her R.I.P

[@mikemarthaller8789]

An American love story No matter the ups and downs, the slings and arrows the love when they look at each other is obvious It's my hope a younger generation sees them and hears the power of their words and music Laugh and LOVE

Johnny & June were devout Catholics their entire lives. It just shows you how the Pope has helped everyone on Earth.

[@Johnyisevil]

It's like she knew she would go first :o

[@GigiLuvs2Sing]

Just watched Jewel in the movie Ring Of Fire and she performed this at the end of the movie. I have never heard it but it made me cry. I just lost a friend of 19 years on May 18th and I'm missing Raegan so much but I know she is in Heaven and that I will be reunited with her and all the others that have gone on before. But until then...I will keep trusting the Lord for I know that He makes all things beautiful in His time. Thanking God for gift of music and dance...Heaven got another angel.

Looks like the real Jordan River. Great song- tx for upload this!

[@granny8897]

Penina 1956 gave some wrong information about this song and album. "Press On" was released in 1999. I had just listened to the song and turned off the cd player to the radio and heard that June Carter had died on May 15, 2003. The last album she recorded and the one Johnny Cash may have brought to her hospital bed would have been "Wildwood Flower" that was recorded between October 2002 and March 2003. Johnny Cash died 4 months later on September 12, 2003.

[@eileentipton345]

I know June and Johnny are writing in the sand on the banks of The River Jordan, in Heaven.

[@jessicaschwab7393]

June’s verse was very haunting because she knew that she would be the first to pass before Johnny who would follow her 4 months later in September.

[@randydoering3649]

This song was written by Terry Smith. If you ever have a chance to see and listen to him in concert, GO, he puts on a great performance!
