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.

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.

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.

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.

[@chuandthemoon]

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.

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.

@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.

That guitar though!

[@JojoeBeach]

This song may be old to some but it's brand new to me and I just can't stop playing it... Fabulous, absolutely spectacular✊🏼✊🏼

[@breckenbrownfield6935]

This is the most amazing spiritual lifting “song” (so much more than a song). Just closing your eyes listening to the lyrics makes you feel that John himself is baptizing you in the Jordan, himself!

[@HoaxGoW]

Instant classic.

Mario Gospel too💕

This wonderful young man deserves all the recognition, he has that old skool, soulful, timbre that can't be replicated.

[@jonathanfuentes9670]

You gotta be kidding me I just now stumbled on this. Dope

[@katiedunlap235]

I saw him live at Ascend Amphitheater in Nashville a few years ago. Hands down, best concert I've ever been to!!

[@GonkBoy66]

Really? He’s coming to my town in May, but the tickets are ridiculously expensive for me. It’s worth it???

[@Juanfifarek]

Really love this version. What a beauty of a guitar.... Wow!

[@Thrilla4romManila]

i/m in love with her voice as well...

[@joshgainey8324]

I can't listen to this song without it taking me somewhere else far beyond space and time....somewhere all this stuff just melts away and there's only emotions and heart left.....deep music and words that really makes you stop and think for a minute.....

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.

[@craigkeller]

If she doesn’t, I’ll come sing it. Lots of people be leaving early though.

THE SMOOTH WATERS FROM THAT RIVER SOOTHES MY SOUL - I WANT TO GO !

[@hefnerbz7103]

My daughter was born a week ago. This song reminds me of her. Her name is River.

Humans are vibration and sometimes we aren't vibrating on healthy frequencies. When we hear music like this, it can change our vibration and energy all together. Music is absolutely a beautiful mind altering drug

[@BumpJ-gn5ly]

Amen🙏🏿

My grandmother went to hospice today. They gave her 7-10 days before she passes. This was the first song that I thought of.

[@fayth2411]

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 💜

[@13CL456]

This is easily one of my favorite songs of the past 20 years. So much feeling and SOUL.

[@bethbnolan]

Why have I not heard of this young man? Less than a minute in I'm hooked. Such sweet harmony from the lovely young lady. Oh, I stand in awe.

[@lochvonsavoy2936]

Leon may God give you long life and good health, so you can keep bringing your amazing music to us and after us!

[@star-km7qq]

how to ease anxiety : listen to leon bridges.

[@rsfrye18]

Yes. He blesses me every time I hear his voice. ❤️

[@mione134]

Yup

[@mosthighlawson3872]

Just saw him live… one of the best concert I’ve ever attended!!!

[@ashcruickshank9056]

I seen him the day before my birthday in Glasgow(Scotland) and it was truly the best live show I’ve ever seen, he played some songs like the album versions and some songs he added a little flare too. I think he was surprised that his music reached so far the fact that a crowd full of Scottish people knew every word to all his songs new and old. If you get a chance see him live, do it, you certainly won’t regret it

[@ETryan90]

this song is proof, complexity does not make a song beautiful... its a two chord song filled with bottomless soul.... a masterpiece to the ears

[@RunawayArtistX]

what a gorgeous duo
