Johnny Cash - When I Look Lyrics






[Johnny Cash:]
When I look beyond the river
And I look beyond the sky
When I look beyond the sunset
All I can see is you and I

I believe that sweethearts up in glory
Go together everywhere
I believe the angels tell us stories
And they’ll have golden wings to wear
I believe that singers just keep on singing
[June Carter:] In a land where no one ever cries

[Both:]
And when I look beyond the river
And I look beyond the sky
When I’m looking at forever
All I can see is you and I

[Johnny:] We’ve all been through our springs and summers
We learned to crawl, walk, and run
[June:] I’m looking forward to the winter
[Johnny:] When all these earthly songs are sung

[Both:]
And when I look beyond the river
And I look beyond the sky
When I’m looking at forever
All I can see is you and I

When I look beyond the river
And I look beyond the sky
When I’m looking at forever
All I can see is you and I
When I look beyond the river

    Haunting...

  13. C.... B....

    And i heard as it were, the noise of thunder. One of the four beasts saying, come and see. And i saw and behold a white horse.
    Hearing him saying these bible texts in his calming voice is just so beautifull

  14. C.... A....

    MERKEL UND SOROS, DIE HÖLLE WARTET AUF EUCH!!!

    Stuka

    The official theme song of Coronavirus 2020.

    F.... N....

    Pretty much

  17. J.... A....

    I'm going to be playing this song while hundreds of people dropping dead around me

    J.... A....

    you and me both sister

    J.... A....

    @Warn Villa I ain't no girl

  18. s.... ....

    I can't wait until the man comes around and collects all the souls he bought.

  19. J.... H....

    I think Til Kingdom Come by Coldplay is inspired in this song

  20. f.... ....

    Coronavirus anthem.

  21. B.... D....

    Who’s here after the coronavirus

    B.... D....

    here because there are times where I could just feel like the end is comming soon

    B.... D....

    The fear is real. Nary a face mask to be had within 100 miles.

    B.... D....

    sillyone52062 My dad works at costco, he says they are constantly selling out of the masks. the thing is, he works at the business center so they have an even bigger supply and its ALL gone

    B.... D....

    @Siddown Those masks won't do shit, they don't have the grading for it.

  22. B.... B....

    *the mother hen

    That is to say the Holy Spirit

    F.... ....

    There is nothing in the Bible truly more terrifying for Christians than when, as it is written, Christ looks upon those that call upon His name and He turns to them and denies knowing them and they are rendered unto death.

    F.... ....

    Bless it for without it where would the passion be?

    All of creation is the artwork of the Divine, the eternity of eternities. Here comes forth God amongst that which is His own to elevate his art beyond their petty capacity so that they may adorn the on High as the pinnacle of creation, of any artwork so that we may not merely bask in His glory but become it incarnate before creation itself and thus in our embodiment of the sublime we may explore God as safely as one would one’s own consecrated spouse.

    F.... ....

    If the outcome of the brides of heaven would be the same as it’s jilted lovers then where indeed would earthly life be?

  24. D.... C....

    The man comes for us all. Who you are doesnt matter. The man will get you. Accept it.

  25. S.... G....

    I know God will frown upon me for saying this but this song really makes me want to get loaded but I been staying clean though

    S.... G....

    Yeah, don't do that. But I understand you brother.

  26. X.... ....

    Every few years or so Christians start manically claiming that it’s the end times because or their own extraordinary confirmation bias. The world’s not ending folks, wake up and smell the roses.

    X.... ....

    Corona-chan says hi.

  57. d.... ....

    This legends music hit me hardest during the worse time of my life, loss of a mother, yet I still listen to this genius, I will meet her again oneday

  58. e.... g....

    I've just wanted to say this about this song for a pretty long amount of time right now.... It's just that, I'm reading through those comments about "the Book of Revelations, yer livin in it" and so on. And it's like, well yeah, we're all living in it... But this song sounds so happy doesn't it? Like Johnny Cash, at or near the end of his life, just kind of let all of his feelings flow out of himself because of.... You know, he might have loved June Carter (Cash), but I don't know that everything this dude did was all that great, to be honest. I mean he killed a bunch of protected birds and trees in California (with a lit cigarette), he cheated on his wife a bunch of times iirc, and just wasn't probably all that great. But I'd always loved the thought that for Johnny Cash, the Man in Black... maybe like the floating red guy up in Vormir from the Marvel Comics, maybe old JR was just leading people around to the treasures that he himself couldn't possess, right? But maybe.... Maybe it wasn't a bad thing for this portion of his life.
    I think that in this song alone I can see the brightness shining once again in the old Johnny Cash, that guy who sang so many sad (and lovely) songs throughout his career. What a treasure you are, you old windy bastard. Love ya dude. Miss you. Goodbye. :)

  59. V.... C....

    Johnny cash the best !!!!!!!!!!!

    My Song of A Life Time/ Gods Verse / JR

  62. a.... ....

    This song made for the deepest hell ppl in the first life

  63. I.... G....

    REVELATION 6:8 "And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him." This verse always makes the hair on my neck stand up.

    I.... G....

    Thanks Ian, very cool!

  64. O.... F....

    Revelations 6:1-17
    And I saw when the lamb opened one of the seals, And I heard, as it were, the sound of thunder. And he said, come and see, and I saw, and he that sat upon him had a bow; and a crown was given to him, and he went forth conquering to conquer. And when he opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, come and see. And there went out a second horse that was red: and it’s power was given to that who sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given to him a great sword. And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, come and see, and I beheld. And lo, a black horse, and he that sat upon him had two balances. And a voice said: A measure of wheat for a penny and a measure of barley for a penny. And see thou not hurt the oil or wine. And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard one of the beasts say, come and see. And I looked, and behold, a pale horse. And whom it carry upon it was death, and hell followed with him.

    there's a man walking round splitting wigs

  66. J.... G....

    I listen to lots of Christian music. Why doesn't this song ever get played?

    J.... G....

    Because he is just mainly talking about the revaluation bro 🤣dumb question

    J.... G....

    Most likely because the subject matter, the Book of Revelation, is not a popular conversation topic, even amongst Christians. Its heavy stuff and not every one wants to hear about the end of the world.

    J.... G....

    Bullshit. In most churches the revelation rhetoric is the primary source of ties. Johnny cash may not be heard as much, due to the widespan of music forums that play his music. Realistically, where are religious song writers heard? other then religious channels?#35yroldblacknationalistwith 3JCalbums...ya dig?

    J.... G....

    WorldWar2freak94 I see where you’d believe this, but it’s mainly the Christians who believe that they can recite a prayer after a preacher to get salvation who refuse to look into the Revelations, possibly because it makes them nervous, as if they know. You can find in The Bible that salvation is a supernatural experience in which one feels the worst guilt, fear, and dread imaginable. I’m unsure of where exactly, I know that I’ve read it and that I’ve experienced it for myself, finally listening after gambling with the risk of losing my chance. Those who accept salvation in the way that it comes, and not the way that it is often advertised, it’ll bring interest in this book among this person. I like to tell people if the Revelations just to let them realize how serious the matter is, to show where some things are already happening. It’s just a matter of Christianity vs. Christianity, there is an unimaginable and quite heartbreaking difference.

    J.... G....

    Because it causes people to think for themselves.

    @Scoutz Protect us from what or who? Israel? That's who the entire world needs protection from. This now the JEWNITED States of ISRAEL. All wars are for the greater ISRAEL project....The big bankers the Rothchilds, Rockefellers etc...America has never been threatened. We fight Israels wars. None of these countries ever attacked us. Israel and Bush did 9/11....Nothing on the news is real truth..None. Obama took care of that..Smith Mundt Act modification ..Allows our media to feed us complete propaganda legally. They tell us what they are told...Don't start cursing at me and calling me crazy until you research it...It's all right out there to find.
