Eric Bibb River of Song song lyrics

First time I heard you sing it made me stronger

Stronger in a way I can’t explain

A sound like freedom when it rings

A sound like thunder – an’ hard rain

A sound like clear, ripplin’ water

Flowin’ down the mountain so long

Someday, we’ll meet again

Somewhere on the river of song

Next time I head your voice

Oh, I was grateful for all I thought was lost an’ gone

Your voice made us rejoice

Made us feel like goin’ on

A sound like clear, ripplin’ water ….

Deep river, windin’ river, healin’ river

Odetta, last time I heard you sing

You lifted me higher – higher than ever before

Your voice, so strong, so free – lifted me

Purified my soul

A sound like clear, ripplin’ water …

Someday, we’ll meet again

Somewhere on the river of song

Deep river, windin’ river, healin’ river

Deep river, windin’ river, healin’ river
