"Many Rivers to Cross" is a song written in 1969 by Jimmy Cliff. Song information This is one of the few Cliff tracks to use an organ, which helps to supplement the gospel feel provided by the backing vocalists.

It was also released on the 1972 soundtrack album for the film The Harder They Come, in which Cliff also starred as an actor.
