Lyrics River of Song - Eric Bibb

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
