Leon Bridges - River (Official Video)

People say good music is dead but it never will die. Your just looking in all the wrong places 👌🏻

This is not just a song - it is a prayer ... accompanied by beautiful music.

I'm leaving this comment here so after a month or a year when someone likes it, I get reminded of this song❤

I come back to this song everytime I want to end it all. This Song and god saves me every single time

Dear God, today I pray for all of us. Today I pray for our collective pain, our collective sins, our collective suffering. Today I ask you to forgive us and to teach us to also forgive ourselves. Today I ask you to wash away all of the pain from our hearts and bring to us peace. Today we reach out to you humbly and surrender...surrender from trying to do everything ourselves...and allow your power to flow through us...to guide us, to help us overcome the insurmountable. Addiction, pain, suffering, negativity, hatred, ignorance, regret, poverty, disease, war, famine, shortcomings. We surrender Lord...we can't do this by ourselves anymore...

After breaking up with the mother of my daughter, I went to go live with my brother for a few months. I was going through a hard time at that point in my life. We'd sit in his living room for hours talking about anything and everything with laughter in almost every moment, making me forget my situation for as long as the conversations stretched on. One day it was the usual set up, we're both in his living room listening to music telling stories back and forth until he received a text from my ex. She sent him a picture of her sonogram of my son. After the initial shock, it was one of the rare moments where we sat in silence and didn't exchange words for a few minutes. After a few moments, he puts this song on. It was the first time I had ever heard it, but it was the perfect song to put on in my opinion. I'll never forget that moment R.I.P Big brother 😪 Your niece just turned 6 and your nephew is almost 4

I'm a dentist in Brazil and this song plays at my work every day… it always gave me a lot of peace and tranquility but only today I was able to realize that this song is a song for God after being translated into Portuguese. I loved it

I just lost my baby and I’ve been playing this song on repeat for the last 3 days, just soothes me during this terrible time

I think this is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard.

I want to meet someone that will make me feel the way that this type of music makes me feel. If that makes sense.

I’m not a religious person despite being raised as a catholic, but there’s something about the song and lyrics that brings me absolute peace. Thanks Leon ❤

Every time i hear this song i transcend to another place filled with love. I find my self closer to GOD .

I played this at my daughters funeral in 2019. In a week it will mark two years. I come back and listen to this song every year around this time. This song means so much to me. It helped me accept my daughter going to heaven and leaving me, that I had to surrender her to god.

My son, 14, is becoming aware that he is a powerful gift, the gift of free will and the ART of voice ❤

Dear future husband, Don't forget this song on our playlist ❤

Been travelling these wide roads for so long My heart's been far from you Ten thousand miles gone Oh, I want to come near and give you Every part of me But there is blood on my hands And my lips are unclean 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 want to go I'll go Take me to your river I want to know Dip me in your smooth waters I'll go in As a man with many crimes Come up for air As my sins flow down the Jordan Oh, I want to come near and give you Every part of me But there is blood on my hands And my lips are unclean Take me to your river I want to go Oh, I go Take me to your river I want to know I want to go want to go want to go I want to know want to know want to know (bis) Take me to your river I want to go Lord please let me know Take me to your river I want to know Leon Bridges - River

Anyone else listened to this song and started to cry............. Anyone listening in 2k21? I love this song!

I heard a young man sing this song at karaoke three days ago at The Joint in Columbia, S C. while visiting my 80 y.o. Dad. He sang so poignantly. When he finished and sat down, the bar (including my Dad) began singing & harmonizing together " take me to the river I wanna go." It was so beautiful...I had never heard the song. The chorus pops in my head & I had to research it so here I am...in awe. Thank you for this song

The only problem of this song is that it ends. Leon, thank you for this art.
