The Civil Wars - From This Valley (Lyric Video) 

The fact that this band broke up is possibly one of the greatest losses in this type of music.

They complete each other. I'm still heartbroken over their breakup. ='( I'll never get over it.

“Oh the outcast dreams of acceptance just to find pure love’s embrace” Gets me every time, man

Oh, the desert dreams of a river That will run down to the sea Like my heart longs for an ocean To wash down over me. Oh, won't you take me from this valley To that mountain high above? I will pray, pray, pray Until I see your smiling face. I will pray, pray, pray To the one I love. Oh, the outcast dreams of acceptance, Just to find pure love's embrace Like an orphan longs for his mother. May you hold me in your grace. Won't you take me from this valley To that mountain high above? I will pray, pray, pray Until I see your smiling face. I will pray, pray, pray To the one I love. Oh, the caged bird dreams of a strong wind That will flow 'neath her wings. Like a voice longs for a melody, Oh, Jesus carry me. Won't you take me from this valley To that mountain high above? I will pray, pray, pray Until I see your smiling face. I will pray, pray, pray To the one I love. I will pray, pray, pray Until I see your smiling face. I will pray, pray, pray To the one I love.

Takes me back to 2014 when I actually started to date her; she's my wife now. :)

This could really be a classic, covered by many. Do love the Civil Wars, despite their own personal civil war.

Oh, won't you take me from this valley To that mountain high above? I will pray, pray, pray Until I see your smiling face. I will pray, pray, pray To the one I love. Oh, the outcast dreams of acceptance, Just to find pure love's embrace Like an orphan longs for his mother. May you hold me in your grace. Won't you take me from this valley To that mountain high above? I will pray, pray, pray Until I see your smiling face. I will pray, pray, pray To the one I love. Oh, the caged bird dreams of a strong wind That will flow 'neath her wings. Like a voice longs for a melody, Oh, Jesus carry me. Won't you take me from this valley To that mountain high above? I will pray, pray, pray Until I see your smiling face. I will pray, pray, pray To the one I love. I will pray, pray, pray Until I see your smiling face. I will pray, pray, pray To the one I love.

Dang, I want to sing this at church with someone. Such a great message in a beautiful song.

Anyones see these drawings reminding you “little house on the prairie”?

This makes me want to dance with every woman I meet.

They have been broke up for like 4 years and still hurts man they were a class act unbelievable talent the both of them every song the wrote and sang was a masterpiece

The acapella harmonies at about 2:20 are awesome. Pay attention! It is simply magnificient. Great job!

Yeah this, and "Oh Henry" and "I had me a girl" I keep listening to over and over. These guys ARE (I'm not gonna say were cuz I refuse) the real deal. A gift to music and to the ear.

2:20 to 2:40 is musical artistry, I could never listen to it enough times... I'm just in love with them.

John Paul White performed in my town last year - he came into the crowd for the last song and it was unreal - also caught his guitar pick from the stage :)

How did I never hear this song until this week?! Best harmonies I’ve ever heard.

Beautiful! A song from the heart. No matter what you believe this song can touch you.

This song reminds me of the city. Last year during the summer I found their album at starbucks and bought it one day before work. Fell in love with this song. For the whole summer when I would walk downtown in the heat, I would listen to this song, and it made me feel like I was in a movie. Especially when I would sit out on the patio of the starbucks building and it was overlooking the waterfront of the city, with all the boats and cruise ships docked. I can't explain how it made me feel like I was in a movie but it did. I guess because it has that beautiful atmospheric tone to it that you would hear in movies, and it ends up not just bringing out the character of the movie, but the scenery also. Everytime I listen to this song now, I think of the summer, and the city and how truly wonderful it was. I Hope to get back there one day. I was so sad that I was unable to find them before they broke up. What a wonderful treasure they are, and I will always cherish their music!

Hearing them singing together and having it sound like before their differences got in the way gives me goosebumps. Just them singing together at all gives me goosebumps

Thanks, poster. So powerful from the day I heard it.

I could never listen to this song with an angry thought! It just makes me feel so happy(:

I love this song 😌 makes me feel relaxed😅

Finally they recorded in the studio just like they sing it live!!! LOVE IT, im glad they included it in the album! one of my favorite songs ever :) BRAVO @thecivilwars !!!

Totally beautiful. Love Love Love the angel's singing and the perfect video to match...

Heard this song in boot camp at church and had to hear it again after getting out ❤️

Beautiful song, beautiful people and incredible graphics. Brilliant!

I might just have to sing this song at my church!

#THECIVILWARS #THECIVILWARS Another outstanding effort from #JoyWilliams #JohnPaulWhite aka #TheCivilWars. Enjoy this enchanting music 😄👍👍👍🎸🎹🥁🎻🎸💚💜💖❤️💛🧡

#THECIVILWARS #THECIVILWARS. Reading these lyrics reminds me of how special the professional relationship was between these two. They write terrific songs together. This is a wonderful song. It's so unfortunate that they could not come to some sort of resolution of differences. We might never get any additional music, but they have left us with two incredible albums of music. In addition to the "live" album recorded at #EddiesAttic. Music has lost a fabulous duo 😄👍👍👍🎸🎻🥁🎹🎸💚💚💜💖❤️💛🧡

The Civil Wars performed beautifully this song. Love it, and the pictures are unique of Alabama. They deserved to be honored for this song. Just praying that they do not brake up the duo. Their voices a beautiful together.

#THECIVILWARS #THECIVILWARS Another fantastic song from my favorite duo. Ya'll bring me joy 😄👍👍👍🎸🎹🥁🎻🎸💖❤️💙💜💚💛🧡

beautiful music beautiful words this is such an amazing song for christian music

this song brings a smile to myface

Love this song Amazing video and art work✌💙

The harmony....it's just... so beautiful

just amazing love them; this may sound morbid but this is a good funeral song as they walk down the aisle of the church in the end outside to the hearse or during the burial might help to lift ppl spirits up a little

For some reason, it took me well over two years listening to the song to actually figure out that it’s a worship song lol they literally say Jesus’ name in the song and it just never clicked

I really like civil wars songs,they have a very nice tune.

This is a great song and love this clip..these guys are the real thing..love em!

If you are into astrology, you'll find this duo extremely fascinating from that perspective alone, never mind their hauntingly beautiful music. I miss them, but don't think they'll ever be together again. She'll never forgive him.

I have discovered this song recently through the "Running Mates". Congratulations, very beatiful song and video. I love the harmonies, the poetry of the lyrics and the happines of the music. Definitely a masterpiece. Kind Regards from Argentine!

Beautiful words!!! Love the video!!! Hope to see The Civil Wars in concert one day!!!

What a wonderful song. Sweet melody, meaningful lyrics and beautiful scene!

That's what I'm hoping for as well. I think this duo has a lot more to offer to the music world, and it would be a shame to see it all end here. I've just decided to be patient. A lot of past duo's and band's have had similar dispute's, but came back even better than they were before. Hopefully The Civil Wars will fall into that group. I've seen your comments on their other videos, so I really do get how much you love this band, and I share that feeling.

Congrats to The Civil Wars for their Grammy win for Best Country Duo/Group Performance!

Civil Wars ; what a duet ! Have not heard any thing even miles close to this when it comes to singing... Even BARTON HOLLOW number is some different level of melody all together ... I pray for you both to come over the differences ...

really love this song, so glad that they included it in this album.

Amazing Charcoal Art Work and this song ❤❤❤✌💙

How refreshing! Someone who's not afraid of a jesus comment! And an observation/opinion that was not disparaging regarding these two amazing artists, at all. Their music is fantastic, I agree! I love their new album! I hope for more to come in the future...

a 1000 times YES! Sounds better every time I hear it, but will never beat the live performance... that looks like the church next door to me

Amazing song! you should sing this everywhere u go. this the prettiest song in the world.

i cant stop listening to this! soo great!

Simply outstandingly beautiful!

Just AMAZING, I love your songs and i really love you guys.

This is so beautiful, video & lyrics & singing. I got shivers & tears.

Actually, I just heard this for the first time in church this morning, and my spirit is balanced!

This is so awesome. The lyric, the harmony, voices, style... everything.

As do I. Hopefully they'll be able to work things out and get together to make more music. I feel like they have so much more to offer as a duo and it would be a shame to have all that potential go nowhere.

je découvre cette musique la mélodie est vraiment jolie

I'm new to the whole country style music scene. Can anyone recommend me some artists with this sound/style? Like slow, with melodies almost nostalgic inducing. I don't really like what I hear on the radio. Seriously, any artists. Preferably with a female vocalist. All I found was Alison Krauss. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks in advance. :)

Always great harmonics...beautiful song!

Love love love the civil wars! I can't ever stop listening to their music!

congratulation for the GRAMMY. you guys deserve it! :))

The hair on the back of my neck just raises when I hear their harmony.

Praise the Lord. Here's to Him who has the ability to take me out from valley of the shadow of death.

This is real music. I wish people would listen more to this kind of music :)

Doesn't this just make your soul smile? (:

I like the old lady country music about the Civil War the hillbillies the Moonshine song and the church song that the children used to sing in the story that the soldier talk about and singing songs at the campfire and I'm singing the songs when they was coming home?

There are definitely many things wrong with this world. The proof is right here. Such a song and not even 1.5 million views?

Great song!

I kind of get the feeling, though, that maybe he made less of a vocal contribution, but more of an instrumental one. This album is a lot more complex in that aspect, and John Paul did mention that he was excited about playing an electric guitar for a change. Also, some of this album was recorded after the split, so I think JP was not very enthused about going to the studio to record vocals and such. Maybe JP wants to have some time to sort out his feelings about whatever happened between them?

Im an atheist, but i love the song

Jesus carry me

I love it !!!!!!!

We don't see music like this anymore because it is common for an artist to possess no natural talent in the business today. People who can't actually sing don't write songs like this cause they couldn't convince anyone it was them at a concert.

Oh the outcast dreams of acceptance

Wow, they are both so so talented. Love this!!

perfection. cant explain my love for them.

I'm still hoping they'll sort out their differences one day and create more beautiful albums together.. although, I'm sure their solo work will be great too...

This song describes me and where I come from!! They have great voices!!3333# ILoveit

Such beautiful melodies.

Where in the Bible does it say that? Me and you must be reading two different scriptures. The way I know Jews are Gods chosen people from the descendants of Abraham. Satan was a fallen angel not the father of some race. God made humans, all in His image and none are sinless in his eyes. Your logic, argument, biased is invalid.

I may be a Hellenic pagan who has devoted my life to Apollo and Artemis and dosnt belive in the Christian faith but this song just is so gorgeous in the vocals and the guitar it is so gorgeous. And I will say a lot of Christian music is beautiful. And I hope everyone has an amazing night or day and blessed be💕

Simply amazing. I applaud their God given talent.

Ai meu Deus, PELO AMOR DE DEUS VOLTEM!! Eu nunca pedi nada pra vocês

i go to twin lakes christan school and doos anybody no somebody named leah???

Hey. Does anyone know songs like this one?

Joy Williams was actually began her career as a Christian artist before she was a part of the Civil Wars. That may have something to do with it. I think the song My Father's Father also has some religious undertones.

Very beautiful song!!!

outstanding.....like always

This song is just PERFECT! They did it so many times in live and I was scared to hear the recording one but it's the same singing as the live's!! I love it!! And the video is beautiful, I can't wait April 6th!!!!!

I love their work... But, they went a little too jesus in this song. I don't recall any other being so overtly religious. Here's to their new album! Great stuff!

Am I the only one who can't watch this video ? It stops like 20 seconds after the begining and there's an error message that appears on the screen.

I heard this on the radio and completely flipped my shit because that was the first time I had ever heard the Civil Wars on the radio

Juste magnifique ....! C'est tout ce que je souhaite dire à Jésus, le Roi des Rois et Seigneur des Seigneurs, mon Sauveur !

2019 and here i am listwning to this song and adore it , its ashame that they broke up cuz music like this most lukely wont be played again . I like country/pop music and i dont like telling people they will make fun of me but idk anymore , i live it to much

Love love love it!

I particularly like the line I will pray, pray pray until I see your smiling face. Resonates for me.

PLEASEEE LISTEN TO ME! THIS SONG SOUNDS LIKE ECHOSMITH'S SONG BRIGHT

Wow what amazing music! Thank God folk is alive!
