Derek Ryan - Life Is A River (Official Video) 

Yes, life is like a river . The water once flows by, will not come back again. So enjoy life to the fullest. Only God knows when our lives will end . Lovely song .

A song dedicated to beloved ones who never die in our hearts despite their departure

I am in the same place as the old man in this song lost my wife of 58 yrs and I get lots from this song thank you

Best song ever... Wife has been diagnosed with Primary CNS Lymphoma... little time left... I can relate to the Old Man... Thank you for the song....

My dad lost his wife this year unexpectedly after 53/years of marriage .this song reminds me of them. R.I ,P mum.beautiful song .

As I went out walking, on a fine summer day Through hills and the valleys, I soon lost my way 'Til I came to an old man, kneeling down by a stream Gazing into the water like he was lost in a dream In his hand was a picture he clung to for life His eyes filled with tears as he tried not to cry He looked to the heavens and started to pray In the quiet country silence, I could hear the man say Life is a river, I'll go with the flow And where it will take me, the Lord only knows I'll miss you sweetheart, your kindness and love But I know one day, we'll sail away on God's ocean above He said, "Now young man, you're a stranger to me Could I bother you kindly for your company? Today I am thinking of a time long ago And I need to tell someone of a girl I loved so It's 42 years today since Rose took my hand And proudly I lived life, her husband, her man 'Til only last week son, God took her away As I kissed her softly, these words she did say" "Life is a river, I'll go with the flow And where it will take me, the Lord only knows I'll miss you sweetheart, your kindness and love But I know one day, we'll sail away on God's ocean above" And with that, the old man sent me on my way And sat by the water, I'll kneel for the day I look at the river, starting out on its life It's where I feel close to my beautiful wife

This is truly a song sang for beloved ones.

The most saddest happend in mylife is when my father died way back year 2000 and again my little brother died way back year 2002 Thanks God that ur always there to guide me and thank you to this great song of Sir Derek God bless us all

I can't stop my tears, though I replay 3-4 times a day. I feel like this song was meant for me.

A fantastic singer. I pray blessings and prosperity on Derek all the days of his life. When we believe in the Lord Jesus Christ then out of our inner beings will flow rivers of living water John 7:37 All blessings in Jesus name forevermore

This such a beautiful song , I lost my husband 2019 due to stage 4 lung cancer he never smoked or drank we used to walking every day, we loved the water it's such a calm place to sit and think I miss him and out walks

Hello Derek Ryan I love and I like so much your song Super top number 1 in my heart❤❤🥰😘🎧🎧🎧

TUHAN YESUS BERI KEKUATAN DAN KETABAHAN BAGI SEMUA ORG YG BERSEDIH..

Only his voice is so magical. Very touching song. I am not tired of listening to it ❤️❤️🇫🇯

Love your voice and love you I am a grandmother and you are my Irish grandson.thhank you for your music,talent,and wish all the besgrr

Dear Dad, I love you in your beautiful heavens ❤. I hope God and the angels are taking care of you. You are missed!

When our destiny is written ,we can not change it no matter how we behave,the only thing is that we must accept all things Giod give us good or bad ,life must go on. I,m refering to the person losing both his father and his brother, it is God who has decided their destiny. Death is inevitabile, it is sth against our or beyond our capacity.

The way life should be after all the Years, Beautiful

My brother passed away 2 months, and this song means a lot to me. althought this song talks about a man missing his wife. this song still has a deeper meaning about keep living life. I miss my brother more than anything, and not a day goes by that I do not think of him.

Você é um poeta . Abraços,aqui do Brasil!!!

Derek, thankyou for the beautiful song. It really touched my heart & made me think of my dad & my family that passed away. Your clip is very touching about the elderly man who lost his wife years ago. So sorry! We all unfortunately experience the same sadness in different situations. Beautiful song touched my heart.
