Lyrics:
I wanna be there when the voices in your head
Are loud enough to make you lose your mind
Just the same when you’re dominating the day
I wanna be the one who’s by your side
You know my love is not the jealous type
It doesn’t matter if we win or lose
I could stay or I could come no matter where you’re coming from
I could be the one to let you choose
I wanna hold you close but never hold you back
Just like the banks to the river
And if you ever feel like you are not enough
I’m gonna break all your mirrors
I wanna be there when the darkness closes in
To make the truth a little clearer
I wanna hold you close but never hold you back
I’ll be the banks for your river
You are beautiful and wild at every turn
Who am I to take control of that
Everybody needs a voice they can follow
When the water and the winds get bad
You know my love is not the jealous type
It don’t matter if we win or lose
I could push or I could pull no matter what you’re trying to do
As long as I can flow along with you
Baby I ain’t saying that you need my help
But you don’t have to do it all by yourself
So baby when the current gets strong
And you need somewhere to rest your bones
I wanna be there for you
I wanna be strong for you

Every time I think I couldn't possibly love this band any more, they release another masterpiece

[@Thatoneemochick2]

Ikr!!! 😍😭😍

[@roelien]

Wanted to say the same👌

[@bryansmith4719]

[@kkirk413]

God blessed that Reinhart fam with some outrageous gifts. Still miss Bo, maybe he'll be back when we can be together at concerts. Love you Bear, Seth and Josh, oh and your awesome drummer!

[@bryansmith4719]

Kat Kirk can’t forget about Randall

[@jamminjag12]

This song screams “I LOVE YOU” without ever saying the words. Goodness, this is beautiful. Thanks for another masterpiece, guys! ❤️

[@madelynmilharcic1508]

Living in a generation where love songs are mainly based on looks and lust, this song is beautiful and refreshing to me! Thank you for such a gentle encouragement about what true love looks like! It’s greatly needed 💛

[@Kenny-wr3ky]

This is how Jesus loves us. If only people knew the love that The Father has for them. Holy Spirit I pray You move upon the earth and fill everyone.

[@vivaelatoda]

Amen, Kenny!

[@oneshinyglove803]

Rivers in theWasteland: I am the best NEEDTOBREATHE album Out of Body: Hold my sippy cup

[@zachyoung9272]

HOW IS EVERY SINGLE SONG A BANGER?? Come on boys, leave some genius for the rest of them!

[@kkirk413]

Hahaha right!!

[@cinz_79]

Right!!

[@bertstorm5126]

Just wait 'til you hear "Alive" :)

[@zachyoung9272]

bert storm I heard it on the rock boat. Incredible dude

[@amberrae9405]

His voice is so unique !!!!! You can feel the emotion in his songs!!!

[@arielleburkett2639]

I'm having a little girl in November, my middle name is Rivers, and we are giving her that same middle name. This is going to be my song to her. It's perfect. 💕

[@tbake1023]

I had a baby girl in June right when this song came out. This is my song to her. I sing it to her and play it for her all the time. And I maybe sometimes cry. Lol

[@joyboyscrumbs]

💞

[@daggerquill7955]

Welp. I didn't schedule today for crying but here we are 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@jeremyseabolt3627]

Was going through the hardest, roughest time of my life. Started listening to these guys, They saved my life, Best band ever!!

[@clarissagarza6304]

💗💗💗

[@sanjanaattanayake4231]

I've a dream to see you'll win an AMA or a Grammy under the title "Most Inspirational Artist "❤

[@joenjoroge1391]

Every song from NTB is a classic and catchy in its own right. God bless you guys😃

[@Onlythefacts]

“I’ll be the banks for your river” what an incredible song!

[@jsunny9913]

This album is already incredible!

[@DreDrexler]

Heavy duty. Lyrics and melody are 💯

[@andobrian]

Anyone else super happy about the new songs???

[@zachyoung9272]

“And if you ever feel like you’re not enough, I’m gonna break all your mirrors.” This is a love song for right now, and for years to come. You are enough. Period. Thank you, gents.

[@amberrae9405]

Love it

[@famousone77]

My favorite band since day 1. They've had some incredible albums and songs along the way, and in my humble opinion, this is their best album yet. And that's saying a lot since Something Beautiful might just be the most personally impacting song in my life ever. I just can't get enough of these guys!

[@TheCreepypro]

may we hold on to our Lord while resting in the knowledge that He is holding us!

[@michaelaagard3064]

This is a sweet and beautiful song. I shared it with my 13 year old daughter who has anxiety and low self image but is one of the most creative and talented and genius and kind and beautiful souls I know. I told her I just want her to see herself the way Heavenly Father and I do, and that I want to flow through life with her, loving and supporting her every step of the way...just like the banks to her river. Thank you NTB for this amazing song.

[@tylergeikie8005]

May she find the unconditional love we all deserve from ourselves and from others.

[@peacelove7872]

Age 13 was hard for me. Emotions all over the place. Not a child...not an adult yet. God made us all perfect just the way we are. Perfectly unperfect. That’s what I would have told myself way back when. ☮️💕

[@vivaelatoda]

Thats beautiful, Michael! Thanks for sharing!

[@JoshCamacho]

yall going to drop the whole album before the album even comes out. haha I'm not mad that you gave us this banger though, cheers!

[@rachellott870]

I don’t know how they continue to do it, but this is going to be their best album yet. So glad to be here to experience y’all’s music over the years.

[@tylergeikie8005]

NTB will always have their religious haters who think they sold out and went too secular. I for one believe their approach to their faith within their music is always at the forefront. What’s more powerful is that they openly express that they welcome their fans to interpret their lyrics in any way that is meaningful. This song is indeed a love song, it could also be a song of praise. And that’s cool.

[@rachellott870]

Tyler Geikie I’m right there with you. Critical people are always going to be hard to please, but the ones who can appreciate what great bands like this do are my kind of people.

[@tylergeikie8005]

Rachel Lott have seen them a dozen or so times as a Canadian and I’m better off for it! They brought my sister and I closer and bonded our friendship in adulthood. And for that I’m forever grateful! Thanks for the response 👍🏻, hope we all get to enjoy their music many more albums to come.

[@stephanieluna2485]

I cried the first time I heard this on The Rock Boat pool deck.....that emotion is still just as strong today. Banks is such a gift! ♥️♥️♥️

[@cinz_79]

I always wonder who the heck pressed the dislike button 🤣 LOVE LOVE LOVE all their songs!! Just when you think you found your favourite, there is a new one 👌❤🙏

[@dustreed1]

Another great song! Just off the charts. This album is gonna be one of the best ever. Gold, Jerry, gold!

[@carrie6002]

I absolutely love you all!!! This is how we should be for one another!! Love one another, tomorrow is not promised so hold each other close, love each other as if it were the last time, be present, supportive and show each other just how amazing we all are 💜🥰🙏🏻

[@nickhiesa]

I mean ...I’m just... noo words ... I mean wow.. right in the heart....

[@danielleangel9197]

This is a true love song. This is pure genius. Love it!

[@aleeagay5603]

“You are beautiful and wild at every turn who am I to take control of that” is my absolute FAVORITE verse

[@estheraruka6374]

Mine too!!!

[@vinnietalarico9007]

Mine is baby I ain't saying that you need my help, but you don't have to do it all by yourself.

[@amberrae9405]

Wow, this group amazes me every song I can’t wait till coronavirus is gone so I can see them live and feel the passion through each of there songs and cry out to Jesus with them! My heart has recently been so broken but when I reply there music and truly listen to their lyrics it provides me this sense of healing I can’t explain ❤️

[@tammyambrose9729]

Guys thank you for this song!!! I was a stripper in dallas and homeless in Hollywood while I was 18 years old..God saved me and now I am still enduring with Jesus!!!! He is still healing my heart!!!Thank yoi

[@millbook6973]

I need this album immediately.

[@itdobelikeda]

I've got a feeling this is going to be used in a pile of weddings and wedding videos this year!

How on earth can one think of disliking this song... It really hit home. Those who gave it a thumbs down needs some lessons on good music. Thank you for this NeedToBreath, Multiplied from Rivers In The Wasteland album still sounds to me like yesterday's release.
