why do people think that Jim nabors is gay is it because he never got married why should it matter to be honest the original meaning for the word gay is happy if you don't believe me then you should look it up in the dictionary
kosherspeare, sjdave, if the man hasn't said he's gay (which he has not), it's disrespectful to make that claim on his behalf. And it's puerile to attack others based on a rumour for which you have no evidence. Grow up, breathe, and get a life, please.
There are several comments on here about Jim Nabors being gay. He isn't. It was a rumor that got started because he never got married and because of a joke that the media ran with as truth. The joke was "Rock Hudson and Jim Nabors are getting married. Then Hudson will be Rock Pyle." The media didn't take it as the joke it was and the rumors ran rampant. Jim, himself, was horrified by these rumors. The poor man, even at 80 years old, is still thought of this way. Please leave him alone.
@KathyL1958 If the unthinkable were true... if Jim Nabors was gay... tell me... would his voice suck? Would his acting be erased? Those are rhetorical questions. The answer is 'no' all around. Grow up and get on the bus.
@autofiljoe If you want to be gay and you are not a Christian Oh well you are right that is something I have to live with. But if you are a Christian you have to live by God's rules and you either have to give him up, or give up being an active homosexual. To do otherwise would be like someone eating a steak and claiming to be a vegan you can't do both.
@autofiljoe Nope it's not what they think that counts. It is God's opinion that matters. And being actively gay is a sin. Now no Christian is sinless I sin too. But we need to recognize that sin is wrong.
@AWTD Some say he was, because of never marrying or having a girlfriend...some say he was not because he denied it and no one could prove otherwise. He was smart enough to keep his personal life out of the tabloids.
What a wonderful voice, I fill the power of the annointing in his voice. God blessed him...I listened to a number of singers, but this touched my spirit. thank you
My Dad, God bless him, sang this all the time; giving me my introduction to Christianity. Christ has been with me to this very day and will be until the end and beyond.
My brother-in-law went Home to be with Jesus last week. The tears that I am shedding will be bring healing to my heart and soul. God Bless You, Jim Nabors.
@Rustina61 May our precious Lord touch you sister in your sorrow, just know that this brother in Christ will include you in his prayers.God Bless You!!! In this world tears can be a good thing, where your loved one now is, there is no use for tears, he's with our Lord, wrapped in the everlasting arms.
@Rustina61 I look forward to seeing you in glory sister, you can introduce me to your brother-in-law too. Just remember He is your refuge and your strong tower, faithful beyond measure. God Bless You.
@sledge1960 Your message made me smile, thank you again ! You'd like Eddie, he was always very gracious, making everyone feel welcome in his home. He was our son's Godfather, I imagine he's looking down from Heaven, watching and guarding us. Peace be with you !
This song is one of my favorite "gospel" songs. It always takes me back to my childhood where I sometimes went to my Grandma's church when I stayed with her for the weekend. The full immersion baptismal tank was backed by a mural, yellowed with age. It was three bare crosses on a hill. What a beautiful memory.
This version of this song brought me to tears. I remember when he sang for the first time on the "Andy Griffith Show" and how surprised people were that his voice was so beautiful and pure.
who woulda ever thunk Gomer Pyle could sing like this!!!! Most believed at the time, it wasn't really him singing but it was! A truly memorable man, Gomer Pyle he will always be.
@mejak888: Do you think Jim Neighbors sins are worse than yours? Do you think the blood of Christ is pure enough to forgive you of your sins but not Jim Neighbors? If you do you need to go and read your bible. ALL who call upon the name of the Lord will be saved. May His name be praised forever and ever. Maranatha!
You, horrific despicable person, that you are.....should go back under the rock you climbed out of....to use a posting such as you did,,,when an incredible man is singing one of the best gospel songs ever in a voice that was a gift from God...should never be allowed to post anything on utube again..I cannot find the words to describe what you are......
@Anne04111945 If I wanted any Lip from you I would have scrapped it off of my scrotum.Didnt your mother teach you its impolite to type with your mouthfull?
@GingerGilligan : Yeshua (Jesus, Isa) is more real than you are. Repent and be saved. Yeshua died so you do not have to go to Hell. Accept His gift of salvation before it is too late.
Jim Nabors can really SING and I PRAISE THE LORD that He gave his voice to God in Song with this Wonderful Music. :) ^5 Jim. :) I Thank to God for allowing Jim to sing The Old Rugged Cross, and for the person that put this on youtube.com :)
@verydull You never Watched his musical show on TV when you was a kid, did you? and you never listened to his albums. Gomer had a beautifull voice. you may only remember the comidian side of him.
Please understand that obtaining eternal life with Jesus is not something we work for and earn for ourselves. We are saved by His mercy and His grace. Grace is unmerrited favor. We believe that he died as a substitute for each of us. . We receive perfection when we go to be with Jesus. As long as we live on planet earth, we will sin daily, but Jesus forgives us when we truly repent. All that must be done from the heart and not just say the words.
@tngranny1: Amen. We cannot earn our salvation nor can we do anything to 'guarantee' it. We are completely at the mercy of God. As the bible says "While we were yet sinners Christ died for us". Maranatha!
@ljackso You cannot earn your salvation but you can unearn it by letting your faith die. "Faith without works is dead, .....but "Faith is perfected by works." So be careful about preaching the sugar coated ear tickling gospel of religious leaders in America today, in a church world where St. Paul's prophecy is being fulfilled "they having heaped up teachers unto themselves turn away from the truth."

What a meaningful song. Jim Nabors has such a beautiful voice ! IIf not for the old rugged cross we would be dead in our sins. Jesus bore our sins in his sinless body and crucified them with Himself so that whoever believes that He did that for them, will have eternal life with Him in heaven. He did that for everyone , but only the ones who believe will be saved. When we believe on Him, we are new creatures in Him. Our sins are gone and we walk in the newness of life. Our will is His will.
@MegaSage007; We are made perfect in Spirit the moment we ask Yeshua to forgive us of our sins and accept Him as Lord and Savior. We have the righteous and holiness of Christ because of his sacrifice. At the Rapture we will be transformed into perfect beings without spot or blemish! Maranatha!
@ljackso Chapter and verse please. No man in the history of the world was ever made spiritually Perfect the day he was saved. In saying you have the righteous and holiness of Christ, you put yourself in the big leagues with the holy Prophets and Apostles. Sorry, but you are the one who needs to read your Bible. As to a rapture before the trouble comes. Thats your flesh wanting to avoid the cross.
@johnnythesailorman You are right. A divided house cannot stand. And the Apostasia predicted by Saint Paul in his prophecies is going to take place and when it does those whose oil has run out in their vessels will be left behind, but those with oil will be caught up to the clouds to be with the Lord. Anyone who says they are spiritually perfected the day they received Christ has no reason to make his vessel ready with oil. He has already arrived. Which one are you?
when i was a little girl my grandma took me to church and she loved this song.now shes gone and i think of her when ever i hear this song it makes me cry. love jennyxox
Remember leaders of different Christian sects, the will of God is undivided Christianity. Give up your churches, no more Catholic, Protestants, Adventist, JW etc. If you think that I am wrong then prove that you are right. Ive asked the Lord for the two simultaneous explosion of volcano in the U.S. within this month of December, pray that it wouldnt happen, if despite of your prayer it does happen, then know that God is with me therefore you have to listen to me.
This unchanging song of the unchanging cross, the old Gospel, unchanging Gospel, unchanging God ! How many trophies will I bring to my Lord? Let's press on ! 我能在基督台前，放下多少战利品呢？让我们一起追求主，传道！培灵！
Everyone Check out JesusChristlovesforever blogspot
and the youtube Jeff Fisher Addresses the world part one I am very upset thinking the media in Chicago would be so Anti Christian.I will be spreading the word of Jesus and JesusChristLovesforever blogspot, HBO RECOUNT and The Passion of the Christ
words I can't think to say but only to cry when I know the price my Lord paid for me, but I'm not worthy but He paid it anyway, and not just for me but for all of us. Jim does have a great voice, he has earned his stars.
sure is hard to believe this is gomer pyle,thanks for posting it,it's like"festus" singing with "the sons of the pioneers",there is 1 of him singing"Tumbling Tumbleweed"thought you might like it,have a blessed day..
It was for me my LORD died, I'm so undeserving but He saw fit to send His own Son to justify me to save me!! Thank You Jesus I love You LORD with all of my heart to Your cross I will cling, I will carry my cross as long as You bid no matter how heavy it may get
hi,i know you mean well,but when you say you'll carry your cross,just remember they hund Him on His cross,are you sure if & when i comes time will you wait on Christ,or be in the falling away?i hope you know satan(anti)christ,"anti"(means instead of)..but so many ppl that are taught false traditions of man.like the "rapture" is a false doctrine,& a very bad thing is:"easter",which was a pagan(sex orgy)held in the spring to the goddess ISHTAR,&it got into God's own house..May God Bless u & urs.
What a fantastic slide show. Thanks so much for posting this. I love this song, It makes me think of my Mom, as she always sang it when I was a kid. Jim has such a great voice.
1 I lift up my eyes to you, to you whose throne is in heaven. 2 As the eyes of slaves look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maid look to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes look to the LORD our God, till he shows us his mercy. 3 Have mercy on us, O LORD, have mercy on us, for we have endured much contempt. Psalms 123
Sorry to here about your grandmother...may the Lord bless and help you and your famil today and in the days to come...May you feel the lord in a great way on monday...
im sorry for your loss,but KNOW for a fact,she is not old,sick,or flesh hurts & feelings,she has made her journey through this earth age,what a day that shall be when we ALL see Jesus,King of Kings,& Lord of Lords,won't be long now,remember the parable of the"fig tree"it started in 1948,& ALL shall come to pass before this generation passes away,"they shall talk,peace,peace,but peace shall not come till they're be a falling away first,the first who stands claiming to be Christ,is really,Satan..
This is beautiful. I had this sung at my wedding as it was my Dad and Grandma's favourite. The funny thing was the Priest had never heard of it (my Dad and Grandma are/were a different denomination to me), so I really had to push to get it in the ceremony. It was only years later I discovered it was a funeral hymn. But I don't care. It brought so much pleasure to my family that it brings a smile and a tear every time I hear it. It's beautiful. Thank you.
I want to thank you for this incredible post, and I wish to bring it to the attention of everyone that there is not a single idiotic, or ignorant comment here, what do you think that means?
Coming from a Scottish family, new year was always a party and everyone had to do their party piece, my Uncle Duncan used to sing this, he died last week, so I had to listen to this one more time. RIP Uncle Duncan
I met Jim Nabors in 1966 at 4-H Club Congrss in Chicago at the Conrad Hilton Hotel. I was a senior in high school at the time. General Foods sponsored his appearance to the delegates. He gave me his autograph and wrote on it "Rebecca, Gomer says Hey!
My family friend always said she'd never forget seeing her mother break into tears the first time they saw Gomer Pyle singing on "Gomer Pyle, USMC" -- they thought Gomer was going to massacre some Christmas carol and make a goofy scene, and they were shocked when that gorgeous voice came out of Gomer's mouth
I loved Jim Nabors on Andy Griffin show and the Gomer Pyle show. He has a voice like no one else. When he sings the gospel songs he can always give me goose bumps. Thank you so much for posting this beautiful video.
Either a tenor or a lovely lyric baritone. Lovely voice. I watched this man as Gomer Pyle growing up. I treasure his memory. He has a beautiful, beautiful voice.

Remember leaders of different Christian sects, the will of God is undivided Christianity. Give up your churches, no more Catholic, Protestants, Adventist, JW etc. If you think that I am wrong then prove that you are right. Ive asked the Lord for the two simultaneous explosion of volcano in the U.S. within this month of December, pray that it wouldnt happen, if despite of your prayer it does happen, then know that God is with me therefore you have to listen to me.

hi,i know you mean well,but when you say you'll carry your cross,just remember they hund Him on His cross,are you sure if & when i comes time will you wait on Christ,or be in the falling away?i hope you know satan(anti)christ,"anti"(means instead of)..but so many ppl that are taught false traditions of man.like the "rapture" is a false doctrine,& a very bad thing is:"easter",which was a pagan(sex orgy)held in the spring to the goddess ISHTAR,&it got into God's own house..May God Bless u & urs.

This is beautiful. I had this sung at my wedding as it was my Dad and Grandma's favourite. The funny thing was the Priest had never heard of it (my Dad and Grandma are/were a different denomination to me), so I really had to push to get it in the ceremony. It was only years later I discovered it was a funeral hymn. But I don't care. It brought so much pleasure to my family that it brings a smile and a tear every time I hear it. It's beautiful. Thank you.

I met Jim Nabors in 1966 at 4-H Club Congrss in Chicago at the Conrad Hilton Hotel. I was a senior in high school at the time. General Foods sponsored his appearance to the delegates. He gave me his autograph and wrote on it "Rebecca, Gomer says Hey!

My family friend always said she'd never forget seeing her mother break into tears the first time they saw Gomer Pyle singing on "Gomer Pyle, USMC" -- they thought Gomer was going to massacre some Christmas carol and make a goofy scene, and they were shocked when that gorgeous voice came out of Gomer's mouth
