Till the Rivers All Run Dry - The Petersens (LIVE)

[@Liz.Newton]

*LYRICS - Till the Rivers All Run Dry* ------------ Till the rivers all run dry Till the sun falls from the sky Till life on earth is through I'll be needing you I know sometimes you may wonder From little things you say and do But there's no need for you to wonder If I need you, 'cause I need you Till the rivers all run dry Till the sun falls from the sky Till life on earth is through I'll be needing you Too many times I don't tell you Too many things get in the way And even though sometimes I hurt you Still you show me, in every way Till the rivers all run dry Till the sun falls from the sky Till life on earth is through I'll be needing you Till life on earth is through I'll be needing you Turn on captions (CC) to see the lyrics on screen Album: My Ozark Mountain Home

The harmony between Katie, Ellen and Matt is truly special.😊❤

[@josegenaroriveraloanzon]

I second that sentiment, David

[@timfoster7789]

Yes fellows I agree, and Matt is steady as a rock seems like nothing throws him off. Ellen very beautiful sound just loved it. Katie always so very enjoyable and interesting to watch, such a soft and smooth voice,

[@stefanfischer70]

Yes. Its great.

Don Williams was arguably one of the best of all time. Only fair that the greatest family of all time covers him.

[@Furrow3182]

He was a great cowboy singer for sure!

[@mikekrieger4154]

sad to lose Don, he was a sweet man

[@davidwilson2657]

One of the great advantages of being 70 years old is that I heard Don Williams sing this song live about 45 years ago.

[@davidwilson2657]

Don and his band were the half time show at the Canadian Finals Rodeo that year in Edmonton, Alberta

[@JamesBirdwell]

All the birds singing with them makes it even more special, just blessed.

[@t.p.3097]

A river with an infinite source never runs dry.

[@dponzi56]

When Emmitt plays that little break with harmonics is just a perfect touch.

[@saintsaens21]

Happy birthday to the wonderful and only Matt.

[@dragoninwinter]

I wore out an old Don William's tape when I was a kid. GOD bless you all.

[@AnthonySettergren]

The Petersen formula of perfection is back for 2022! Wonderful song choices, great interpretation, excellent musicianship, amazing harmonies, lovely scenery, pure videography and of course beautiful smiles!!!!!!!!!

[@brianemerson2192]

I used to be a working musician and so I know a little about singing, harmonies and musicianship. I've never heard any better music choreography! Brilliant!

[@janicew6222]

My husband loved this song, brings back sweet memories of one I loved deeply. Beautiful.

[@SMETSYSGNIMIT]

I absolutely love you guys and my wife and I will come to Branson to see you soon. Ellen...you have a wonderful voice, but there's something else I have noticed about you...your smile. When you are not singing, I love how you look at your family with such warmth. You truly bring a joy to us when we watch you. God really speaks through you and your family. My wife has terminal cancer and maybe a year or two left, so this song really hit home with us.

[@DJPTEXAS]

God bless you and your wife... Prayers...

[@tgodantas]

God bless them. I face this struggle with my 3 year old son. receive my affection from Brazil. Know that you are not alone on this journey!

[@rebeckaseward139]

Praying for you and your wife! For more encouraging music check out Joey + Rory and their story! :) I agree the Petersons and this song are amazing! :)

“”When you are not singing, I love how you look at your family with such warmth.“ Me too.

[@rebrock67]

Don Williams was my mother's favorite singer when I was growing up. She passed away in 2020. You did a wonderful job on this song even if it did make me cry.

[@sunrayrule]

I love the Northern Parula warbler singing in the background at the end of the video.... Oh, and it goes without saying, Don Williams would have loved this....

[@CaptainAmaziiing]

Props to Emmett for the tasty dobro harmonics at 2:40. A+ . Take a bow. Now all you guys need is more BASS SOLOES!!!!!

[@karthik-manickavelu]

Till life on earth is through….we definitely need the Petersens! I’m lost for words, it was so beautiful. 😍 I’m sure Don Williams is proud of this.

[@villamjoe87]

Ellen's vocals.........there are no words! Just listening to this again and again. Thank you for the experience!

[@gratenate4932]

How about angelic?

[@DannyHerron]

the harmony is soooo soothing

[@DavidDeelLoco]

Beautiful. Simply beautiful. I love this family and their music. I'm pretty much on the tail end of life. Sometimes, just listening to them sing and play, I get a reprieve, and my memories come alive. I'm sure that sounds dumb to most people. Thank you for sharing your God given talents and know you are appreciated dearly. And that violin. Wow!!!

[@OwenChristyJr]

I cannot for a moment imagine this craft being produced solely for money; this is a pure love of music.

[@emmajo4880]

That is a beautiful thought! I agree!

[@josegenaroriveraloanzon]

Beautiful song and awesome harmony! Love it!

[@edyue1]

This is the first time I ever heard this song, man those voices really do it

[@cheyster_wind]

This song well describes how the fans feel about the Petersens! ❤ 😉

[@emmajo4880]

Yes!!!! Amen!

[@williamandrews781]

They are such good people which is so rare

[@williamtilton7019]

I have played all my life since I was fifteen yrs old I now 72 and still playing and I think you all are great your Harmony is great and musical talent is really very good and on the money good luck to you always and God Bless!!

[@johnmires7941]

Your grandpa had great taste. This is a truly beautiful love song. Ellen's lead vocal is somewhere between perfect and ethereal. I just love the harmonies too, just a fantastic job by Katie and Matt. Combined with the wonderful instrumental work by Emmett Katie and Karen make this one of my Petersen favorites!

[@davidguyer8718]

The more I listen, the more I love it and just may be my personal fav Petersen Band song. Thank you for this delight.

[@jeffdetmer4681]

Beautifully done. A great take on that wonderful song. Old Don would be thrilled. Great job Ellen. Everybody on point as usual. Just love those family harmonies. Doesn't seem to matter which of you or how many of you are singing. Always seamless. It certainly is a better day when we get a Petersen's video. Thanks for sharing your gifts.

[@kennrothman205]

I came back and all I xan say is, listening to this song is just...well...there ARE NO WORDS...other than AMAZING and AWESOME!

[@TheAncientsumerian]

Listening to this song bring back memories of Don Williams and his beautiful songs.

[@dandao2000]

When I was a kid I was told by my sisters if you could blow all the seeds from the dandelion in one blow you get to make a wish. Oh yeah awesome job with the song.

Always so nice to see such a beautiful family. God bless from Florida

[@harrywinslow3946]

You nailed it Emmett! Mom, I'm glad you miced up your bass, because now it's coming through loud and clear.

[@carlwestcott5246]

I totally agree. Special Thanks to the audio engineer!!! Been waiting a long time to actually hear Momma on the bass.

[@nealguentzel2458]

Don Williams was such an awesome song writer and singer, and The Petersens sing one of my favorites of his songs in such a beautiful and sweet way that it truly honors him. Ellen takes the lead with great harmonies from Matt and Katie. This family band is REMARKABLE as truly decent people who are great singers and musicians and who operate on PURE UNADULTURATED TALENT!

How did I miss this? I love your music and I love Don Williams. This is great!

[@lesbsocal9107]

One of many reasons The Petersens are going viral in popularity.

[@stevenowell]

That's the way it should be sung. So beautiful

[@captainz2232]

This may sound odd, but I can physically feel the harmony here resonate. This may be my favorite video so far.

[@davidmehaffey727]

The true mark of a great bluegrass band is pinpoint tight harmonies and these vocals are fantastic. Great song choice and great delivery.

[@arghapirate2427]

Wow these harmonics are wonderfull!

[@ronwig8172]

Loved the harmony, I’m so glad the Petersens are back singing on you tube again.

Another Petersens Masterpiece!

[@derrickmurphy7729]

That's what you call sweet.perfect harmony.

[@FrankvdMuijsenberg]

Absolutely gorgeous! That's a very low 'get', Ellen (2:34). The Petersens' versatility never ceases to amaze me.

[@ROCROCROC1]

Don Williams. I miss him. Beautifully performed.

[@jaroslavbielek2]

it´s something beautiful. Beautiful song and beautiful voices.

[@dlpfaffen]

The Petersens at their very best, when Ellen sings lead, Matt and Katie sing harmony. Gorgeous music that lifts you.

[@guybuckridge7326]

I respect people that commit to their craft and it's invigorating when they excel in it - rarer than it used to be but still around. The Peterson's however add something special to the mix that can only come from a place of love, and that makes them downright legendary. Have a cupcake day! : )

Will never forget seeing Don Williams in Ft. Smith a while back. Hope to see you in Branson soon.

[@kennrothman205]

I came back yet again...and as I listened the harmonies reminded me of an actual enlightenment...heavenly sounds as well as thoughts.

[@were4freedom323]

All Beautiful! The dobro makes this EPIC!

[@GraeHall]

I love so many different types of music, mostly far different from this. But even when I accidentally click on a The Peterson's video and the harmonies start, I can't leave, I have to listen all the way through. This takes me away, it lifts me to a place where there's nothing but the power of acoustic heartfelt melodic sweetness. The closest thing I can match it to is the best work by The Chicks. And that's an incredibly high compliment.

[@williamhadley522]

I love how Mrs. Petersen in the back is just loving her kids harmonies and feeling the music! Love to you all.

[@truman42746]

That was beautiful! Sibling harmonies always sound good but you guys are the best! I love this song!

[@normandlebrun9610]

The Petersens clearly in their comfort zone and so very comforting to us . Thank you guys for this beautiful song . Love you !

[@smcd9513]

Every detail from Emmett making the dobro chime, Karen maintaining perfect timing on bass, and Matt, Katie, and Julianne in perfect rhythm all topped off with great vocals and unbelievable sibling harmonies, and Ellen's strong and beautiful solo.........perfection! I listen to your music almost every day and will never grow tired of doing so.

[@joycesmith8299]

If I ever again hear this song performed without the chime of the dobro at the beginning of verse 2, I will declare the performance incomplete. Whoever arranged this song to include that small but special harmonic made a good choice. Second and third plays had me listening for that inclusion.

Vero, ho già paragonato Emmett a The Edge degli U2 accidenti non mi ricordo come si chiama, comunque entrambi con i loro strumenti chitarra elettrica e resofonica ti fanno sentire il Paradiso. Ciao dall'Italia.

Matts harmony here is just superb! All your voices blend so beautifully and Emmetts playing always seems to be directly connected to everyone's vocal chords harmonically. It's insanely good. But I have to say what stands out most to me here is Matt's blending with Ellen. Thanks for posting.
