    As I journey on the path that Eva traveled before she died of cancer, I am uplifted and comforted by her music. I silently ask God, when can I go home? And through my tears, God tells me to persevere for another day.

I have just played it to her now she is fifteen and she has no memory of it! It was very useful though, especially on car journeys.

    Wade in the water
    Wade in the water
    Children wade, in the water
    God's gonna trouble the water
    Who's that young girl dressed in red
    Wade in the water
    Must be the children that Moses led
    God's gonna trouble the water
    Wade in the water, wade in the water children
    Wade in the water,
    God's gonna trouble the water
    Who's that young girl dressed in white
    Wade in the water
    Must be the children of the Israelite
    Oh, God's gonna trouble the water
    Wade in the water, wade in the water children
    Wade in the water,
    God's gonna trouble the water
    Who's that young girl dressed in blue
    Wade in the water
    Must be the children that's coming through,
    God's gonna trouble the water, yeah
    Wade in the water, wade in the water children
    Wade in the water,
    God's gonna trouble the water
    You don't believe I've been redeemed,
    Wade in the water
    Just so the whole lake goes looking for me
    God's gonna trouble the water
    Wade in the water, wade in the water children
    Wade in the water,
    God's gonna trouble the water

      Sorry but that's "yonder" she's singing - not young girl. The idea is that they are looking afar off in the distance. From the original African-American spiritual - the lyrics were referring to the biblical foreshadowing about baptism in Christ, as when God delivered Israel from Egypt out through the RED SEA (that's why they are dressed traditionally in red, blue, then white for redemption). Many do red, white, and blue now to correspond to the US Flag and an adaptation was by the Underground Railroad helping slaves escape from cruel Southern slavery to Northern freedom at that time. I love her voice and the symbolism of what God can do for a nation or just one human soul.
      Anyways - I though it was cute to say "young girl" though the grammar suffers a little - there's a little lady I know that I could sing this to that way! Blessings! CXI www.godtube.com/watch/?v=KGDYLNNX

    I will always be grateful to Emmit Powell, who introduced me to Eva Cassidy's music & this song in particular. It was to my great sorrow that Eva had passed on 4 years earlier.
    I lived in Vancouver, BC & had listened to Emmit in Berkeley CA on KPFA for ages. Eva as I'm sure you all know, was from Baltimore. Music moves us from so many places, hm?
    Emmit's show preceded Johnny Otis' Barrelhouse Blues show on KPFA. Another one of music's legends.
    I had a chance to say hello to him at the Powerhouse Brewing Co. where he broadcast his show Live every weekend. We first me in 1973 when he played The Egress in Vancouver.
    Both Emmit & Johnny are hopefully still creating music - maybe even with Eva! 🙏

      Apparently the handlers of her legacy don't want it to continue, since they constantly block any kind of sharing by people who can share her music with the next generation... they don't understand what this is doing - the only people who will listen will be the old people (like me) who are familiar with and love her beautiful music. So sad and so short-sighted. (Leland Sklar did a lovely introduction to Eva's music on his UA-cam page which was immediately blocked.... ) To the people who manage her estate and legacy - please rethink what you are doing by cheapening her music with your "Merchbar" (whatever that is.)

You will not even have or know your own personal style. That is how squeezed your mind is. Your inability to see the abundantly flowing exquisite methodology of the great Eva Cassidy demonstrates your wanna be self. Aside from Eva's excellent vocal chords, the supporting acoustic rhythm and solo guitar playing, amongst other instruments, places this song on a height only the best ever achieve.

      So everyone should just like exactly the same music them?

You need to re-evaluate your life if people not having the same tastes in art gets to you so much.

      Almost too good to be the best comment I've read on this totally divine song from Eva Cassidy. She's so in heaven helping lost souls redeem themselves by listening to her sing this song and endorsing others who are hearing her for the first time. I have just heard this song for the first time at a music show here in Invercargill, New Zealand 5/08/16 9.00pm. The gal who sang it blew my mind and the backing band accompanied her to perfection with a raunchy pumping bass line...as soon as my wife and I returned home I hit UA-cam to find the song and well the rest is history...best wishes to youToxi Com :-) Leighton (New Zealand)
