DESCRIPTION UPDATED 3/31/20
Peace Like a River" is a song I turn to again and again— it's helped me through times of grief and uncertainty, and if a pandemic isn't both of those things, I don't know what is. I recorded this video a couple years ago, when my daughter (who makes an appearance in the video) was younger and my hair was longer!

If you find yourself experiencing anxiety, sadness, or grief, I encourage you to give this song a try. It's also a great song to share with kids who might be having a hard time managing their emotions.

In this video I'm playing it in the key of C using only the C, F, and G7 chords, making it very accessible for even brand-new ukulele players. If you'd like to learn to play the ukulele, check out my book, "Let's Play! The Ukulele Handbook for Beginners," available in paperback and as a digital download at http://www.musicalmama.com/letsplay
