This song became a hit for American rock band the Grass Roots.  In April 1969, their version of "The River Is Wide" entered the Billboard Hot 100 chart at no. 87, and by May, it had reached its peak position at no. 31.  The song appeared on their studio album Lovin' Things, which was released the same year.  It later appeared on the band's compilation albums More Golden Grass and Their 16 Greatest Hits, which were released in 1970 and 1971 respectively.  The song has also been included on multiple subsequent compilations by the group.  The single version does not contain the thunder present at the beginning of the LP version, and is also in a different key.
