River of Jordan Lyrics


I traveled the banks of the River of Jordan
To find where it flows to the sea
I looked in the eyes of the cold and the hungry
And I saw I was looking at meI wanted to know if life had a purpose
And what it all means in the end
In the silence I listened to voices inside me
And they told me again and againThere is only one river, there is only one sea
And it flows through you, and it flows through me
There is only one people, we are one and the same
We are all one spirit, we are all one name
We are the father, mother, daughter and son
From the dawn of creation, we are one, we are one, we are oneWell, every blade of grass on the mountain
Every drop in the sea
Oh, every cry of a newborn baby
Every prayer to be freeEvery hope at the end of a rainbow
Every song ever sung
Is a part of the family of woman and man
And that means everyoneWe are only one river, we are only one sea

And it flows through you, and it flows through me
We are only one people, we are one and the same
We are all one spirit, we are all one name
We are the father, mother, daughter and son
From the dawn of creation, we are one, we are one
We are one, we are oneWe are only one river, we are only one sea
And it flows through you, and it flows through me
We are only one people, we are one and the same
We are all one spirit, we are all one name
We are the father, mother, daughter and son
From the dawn of creation, we are one, we are one
We are one, we are one

The trio Peter, Paul and Mary (often PP&M) is an American musical group that was one of the most successful folk-singing groups of the 1960s. The trio comprises Peter Yarrow, Noel Paul Stookey, and Mary Travers. The group was created by manager Albert Grossman, who sought to create a folk "supergroup" by bringing together "a tall blonde (Travers), a funny guy (Stookey), and a good looking guy (Yarrow)." He launched the group in 1961, booking them into the Bitter End, a coffee house in New York City's Greenwich Village that was a favorite place to hear folk artists.
