This song literally saved my life ….if it wasn’t for this song I would still be smoking Fentanyl….or be dead!! This song and a loving family made me sober with no rehab or no crutch drugs….thank you Mr Cliff!!
"I've been licked, washed up for years, and I merely survived.....because of my pride" The first Jamaican superstar....actor/singer.His vocal range is up there yo.
Growing up in the Caribbean, I was in a youth group and we used to have local talent shows and everyone wants to sing a Jimmy Cliff song because he was one of our favorite singers. Every song that he sang was an inspiration to me and many others I can still listen to his music for a very long period of time without getting bored. One of my favorite was Time will tell , Time will tell , Time alone will tell.
That's wonderful to hear. I never heard of Jimmy Cliff untill I moved to the Caribbean. I got a crash course in him, Culture, and Peter Tosh. Changed my life. ❤️
Only my will that keeps me alive!I feel very lonely, worthless, stupid, useless, I don't know how I can get out of this stage of my life, I listen to this song almost every day, it's difficult to watch your love one dying and you can't do anything to stop it! Thanks Jimmy for all your encouraging words!
Josephine Olowu, seek for professional help to regain your true worth and confidence. Life is worth living. Try joining a good church and really get involved in what they do. Good luck
I had this played at my brothers funeral,he was a drug addict and died….baring his addict he was a lovely guy..and this song told his last story ,it’s such a Beautiful song and ,sang with so much feeling ..
By your GRACE my LORD and SAVIOR, I am still keeping my FAITH in YOU JESUS CHRIST, YOUR FINISHED COMPLETED WORK for ME ON THE CALVARYS CROSS… Thank you my redeemer Jesus Christ for your BLOOD and THE CROSS 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
JESUS SAID SOMETHING ABOUT THEY WHO BELIEVE IN ME WILL NEVER DIE AND I WILL RAISE THEM AT THE LAST DAY WHAT EYE HAS NOT SEEN NOR EAR HEARD WHAT THINGS GOD HAS IN STORE FOR THOSE THAT LOVE HIM .JESUS PROMISES HEAVEN FOR A CUP OF WATER GIVEN IN HIS NAME ALSO DEVOTION TO MARY IS NECESSARY FOR SALVATION THE PROTESTANTS HATE MARY. JESUS FORGIVES MANY SINS BUT THEY WHO OUTRAGE INSULTING HIS MOST BELOVED MOTHER AND HAVE NO DEVOTION OR LOVE FOR HER ARE ALREADY CONDEMNED WHITHOUT MARY JESUS WOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN BORN. THE REASON WHY THE NUMBER OF THE ELECT IS SMALL IS BECAUSE THEY THE DAMNED HAVE NO LOVE FOR HIS BELOVED MOTHER
When I came to uk I was having a bad time,with my husband,He was taking drugs,I sing this song every day, he is over it now.jim even now cry when I heard it ,its touching am near to where u come form just 2 mile through the bush GOD BLESS YOU.
What a beautiful voice….Jimmy Cliff has been a big inspiration.His disposition towards life is so infectious through his music.I will never stop until my battle is over
I was in my twenties when this song came up. It was both electrifying and touching, I wish it will be played on my funeral, when I'll be crossing the last river.
I just unexpectedly found out my good friend Josh passed away coolest kindest guy one would ever meet this is for you brother.. Many rivers to cross.. I'll see you on the other side🖤🖤🖤🌜🌞🌹
The way he sings THIS GREAT song is so powerful & meaningful it always moves me. He puts so soul into 2 it & I just love the words. Thank you Jimmy Cliff 4 your music & the song.
Never heard of Artist nor song. Stumbled across it after listening to Sam Cooke - Change Gonna Come. Beautiful song by Jimmy Cliff . We got many Rivers to cross. Yes indeed.
I don't want to jinx why this hasn't been seen more or isn't on RU-vid but Google Jimmy Cliff and Dick Cavett. I agree this is one of the best performances of the song especially with the horns and the percussion.
Many rivers to cross But I can't seem to find my way over Wandering I am lost As I travel along the white cliffs of Dover Many rivers to cross And it's only my will that keeps me alive I've been licked, washed up for years And I merely survive because of my pride And this loneliness won't leave me alone It's such a drag to be on your own My woman left me and she didn't say why Well I guess, I have to try Many rivers to cross But just where to begin, I'm playing for time There are times I find myself Thinking of committing some dreadful crime Yes, I've got many rivers to cross But I can't seem to find my way over Wandering I am lost As I travel along the white cliffs of Dover
O yes please I am here totally enjoying listening to this wonderful song from back in the day and it's just amazing and the memories that is this song thank you for the musical journey blessings and respect 🎶🎶🎶❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🌈🌈🌈🙏🙏🙏✌️✌️✌️👌👌👌🌟🌟🌟💯💯💯🎇🎇🎇🌲🌲🌲
