I grew up just a few miles where these boys used to live... This song has been sung in the mountains for years in the churches by families. At Laurel Chapel Baptist Church , the Carver sisters used to sing this song and it would make you weep... Linda, Brenda, Ann, and Cleva you were always a blessing...
@mustanglovr2005 this is one of my favorite songs also, I used to sing in a group and we would sing this at funerals, people that had never heard this song would tell me that is the most sweetest song they had ever heard, and comforting, God Richly Bless ever one,, Bess
If there is any way to post "Light at the River" I sure would love to hear it but if not that's still OK, I'll just enjoy what is available. I have sung it several times but not nearly as good as they do.
The Primitives are awesome... I'm going to see them on Saturday September 26th 2009 in McMinnville TN at Cumberland Valley Nursury on Shaffie Lane.. Everyone is welcome, Bar-B-Q is provided, and there is no admission price!! Ya'll come!
Wow, this is some great harmony. I love this song. I had never heard it before either. May God bless you for sharing these great songs with us. 5 *****. A great message in this song, so Beautiful.
Thanks, their harmony is incredible; so cool that three of them are brothers, and the others are old friends. Great to see a group stay together like they have.
We sing the same way here in South Central Kentucky without music, just harmony. There is nothing like the Old Time way of singing. But more and more people are going to that modern gospel. It just isn't heart felt.
Okay, I'll try to keep posting more. I got a little carried away with the songs from their other cd. I think I posted all but two of the songs on the cd. Hope that doesn't hurt their cd sales.
Wow, now that's a vocal band. Incredible!!!!

I've always loved this song...but as I get older, the more I relate to it, and the more comfort I find in it.
