73 years on this planet and I keep finding such unbelievable music of all kinds it makes me feel like I'm a teenager
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...
This is one of the baddest ass songs n videos I've ever heard/seen in my lifetime n I'm almost 60 ❤️
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.
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 come back to this song everytime I want to end it all. This Song and god saves me every single time
My son, 14, is becoming aware that he is a powerful gift, the gift of free will and the ART of voice ❤
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.
If your reading I ask you to pray for my mom, she's going under a lot of stress between my grandma having cancer and being a single mother her life hard. I ask you to pray.....please
I first heard this song on All American, then I heard it again on the new Netflix series Forever. This is the most passionate, meaningful song I've ever heard. Bless the voices that delivered this song.
This is my first cousin... my baby cousin Todd "Leon Bridges" and I love him and I am so proud of him! This is my favorite song by him besides twistin and grovin which is a song about our grandparents and Lisa Sawyer which a song about his mom my aunt Lisa and where she grew up also where I once lived. We are so Proud of you Todd. God Bless You
if you read this.. just say a little pray for me.. my cross is very heavy..
I want to meet someone that will make me feel the way that this type of music makes me feel. If that makes sense.
You sent out a little part of your love when you recorded this song. I’m the one who captured it…and I’m not giving it back. Now, there is a part of you living inside a 54 year old white man who lives at the end of the road in Alaska. To my African American neighbors….thank you for loving this old stray dog, teaching him how to work, showing him how parents are suppose to act, letting him know what honor, humility and forgiveness looks like.❤
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
WHy can't talented songwriters and musicians like this fill the Top 40?
I dont consider myself a religious man, but this song is too beautiful to not feel some type of connection with God when I listen to it.
This is so fundamental to all humans. The need to feel forgiven or cleansed and the beauty of God's mercy in giving us that gift of cleansing if we just ask him for forgiveness. Thank you Jesus for the gift of life and the gift of an abundant life in your through faith in your name Jesus.
