Country star Wynonna Judd honors her late mother with a touching performance of ‘Love Can Build A Bridge.’
Wynonna and her mother, Naomi, released this hit song in 1990. Naomi even helped write the iconic number.
“I would swim out to save you
In your sea of broken dreams
When all your hopes are sinkin'
Let me show you what love means”
While this song was originally written for the duo, Wynonna is on stage by herself. Sadly, Naomi Judd lost her battle with mental illness in April of 2022.
Her impact on the country music world went beyond just records. As the matriarch of The Judd family, she inspired millions of people all around the globe.
Today, Wynonna is celebrating her mother’s life with a beautiful performance of ‘Love Can Build A Bridge’ at the special memorial event, Naomi Judd: A River of Time Celebration.
Even though we have heard these words many times before, they hit differently this time.
“Love can build a bridge
Between your heart and mine
Love can build a bridge
Don't you think it's time? Don't you think it's time?”
This emotional performance resonated with hearts all over the world. One viewer wrote, “This song always hits home for me. This song has a whole new meaning to Wynonna now. Naomi was a beautiful song writer she was a beautiful woman I truly hope she is at peace.”
Another said, “The tears are flowing. What an amazing tribute to Naomi Judd. Mother, Wife, Icon.”
I think we could all use a few tissues right now.
Revelation 21:4 “And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.”
