Grateful Dead - Ripple (Lyrics)

[marylandria]

May be the most beautiful song ever written.

[terryburr]

This is one of the deepest songs ever. It fills your soul with peace, serenity, and comfort in a world filled with pain, anger, and grief. May it's light and message shine bright forever

One of The Best Songs From The Grateful Dead and One of My Favorites Besides “Touch of Grey” Most Recently!

[BoxerCLC]

I recently discovered this song this weekend, and literally every time I listen to it, I start crying because of how beautiful it. The words, the melody, the spirit of the song, the optimism, the mandolin, or what, but everything I hear it I cry and ask my self how this song can be so beautiful. I can't believe I'm 39 and just now discovering the Grateful Dead for more than Touch of Grey and Scarlet Begonias (which I think are two of the best songs ever)

My Dad passed July 17, 2024 and he requested this to be played at his Celebration of Life!

[saylemilne]

Spirituality, humanity and hope, all wrapped up in a melody that never leaves you.

[GeorgeStar]

Brings tears to my eyes because those golden days of youth are gone forever.

[AnselmoFiorini]

"Let it be known
There is a fountain
That is not made
By the hands of men..."

My fiancé took his own life not long ago and he showed me the dead when we first started dating. He’d sing this song over and over with so many others because he was a singer… I listen to this and just hear him… bittersweet. During my panic attacks like today- I come listen to this (him)… ❤

The power, kingdom and all the glory are God the fathers and his son forever. Glad I know them. God bless you

Probably a song written for a friend who had died. You're not alive if you're not touched by this song. Thank you Jerry. RIP. To be played at my funeral.

[christopherpike]

Just the anthem of Hippiedom! So moving and beautiful!

[breese]

RIP Bill Walton. Your passing made me think of this song

[sabrinaalbanese]

This was one of my grandma's favorites. She was an amazing woman she sadly passed this year in January at 94 I believe. I miss her dearly and cant help but tear up when I hear this. I miss her every day more and more❤🙁

This was my dad's "brother's" (best friend, close family friend, my "uncle") favorite song. He died suddenly and unexpectedly years ago. I was very young but it deeply affected my eldest brother, seven years my senior. It's Uncle Stephen's birthday today, so in his memory my brother will sing this for him.

[VaderPopsVicodin]

Forever one of their absolute best songs.. what a beautiful melody. Goes perfectly with the lyrics.

[markshillingburg]

This song is just perfect, I Looove the Dead so much, a friend who introduced me to them told me “just listen, it’s impossible to feel bad wen listening to GD” wise words, I haven’t stopped listening since!!!

Back home we play this when someone dies. I just lost a caregiving client of 10 years who was a Deadhead and had to play this.

[Puzekat]

In 2022, not particularly being a Grateful Dead fan nor even recalling this song, I woke up to this song in my head. Yes it is a beautiful song
