"Many Rivers To Cross"
(originally by Jimmy Cliff)
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 and she didn't say why
Well I guess, I gotta try.
Many rivers to cross but where to begin,
I'm playing for time
There'll be times when I find myself thinking
Of committing some dreadful crime.

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
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.

Reflection

Very important to know where you're coming from in life and where you're going. It's also very important to take note and know if you're moving forward or backward. This song is just too much in helping anyone who is passing through that stage in life where he think he's not moving forward.

This song tell me and admonish me never to stop moving, I still have many rivers to cross, many oceans to sail and there is more to life ahead of me. I've got to push on and never stop.

I've still got many rivers to cross.
