  • I love that Bonnie Owens. She was a very talented Lady. I miss seeing her.

  • @Bogardrippy She still tours with him.... at least, she did 8 years ago when I saw Merle in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.....

  • i have never found peace with god

    probably down to my work

    makes it hard when u r job is to send souls rather than collect

    my life my choice will see later no doubt

  • This is mocking with the song,if not saying other word!

  • @stenlak What do you mean??

  • Amazing Blonde

  • this song was cut before jewel was even born. come on... know ur music.

  • This song is all the more beautiful considering who wrote it in 1800 or so -- a former captain of a slave ship who found the right path and worked tirelessly to abolish the shame of slavery -- in 1808, England saw the light, against all odds.  It was the aberrant southerners who were too stupid to find the righteous path, and fought so hard for OTHER people's abominable "right" to enslave other humans.

  • Nice Titays

  • ruined the song

  • schön <33

  • R.I.P. Mammalee--04/07/10...

  • she's pretty!

  • Great video. It's a shame the last three verses aren't included. (By the way, the "ten-thousand-year" verse was added after John Newton died. The sixth verse he wrote was: "The earth shall soon dissolve like snow; The sun forbear to shine. But God, who called me here below; Shall be forever mine."

  • I love the version, too bad it wasn't complete to the end.

  • Absolutely the most beautiful version of this song! Not as the original but better atmosphere in this song.

  • Anybody hear the original. You must be old. Better'n 200 years old I'd say.

  • and saying someone is ptiful because they don't agree? that is pathetic, grow up.

  • prometheus and others just shut up! people's religions are their own opinion not yours. just because you don't agree with it does not give you a right to run down their opinion. i personally think that most religions are a scam. that is MY opinion and none of you have a right to run that down, just like i respect your views and would never dream of challenging your view. if someone wants to be a muslim that is their choice, same with christianity, judaism etc.

  • You are intiltled to your own opinions, just as everyone else is. but i think you take it to far to say that christianity is trash. You may say that you don't understand it, and maybe someone here could help you, but you can't really talk unless you truly understand the religion.

  • im catholic what does that mean?

  • me too we sing it in church I'd be pissed if we didn't

  • yum

  • cumara0seadog, smell the coffee. The influence of Jesus over the last two millennia obviously caused the men of the West to think and then through their efforts to cause the existence of some of the finest physically AND psychologically healthy females ever to walk the earth. This goal of which culture produces the better female is all that matters in the end. The West is on a mission. Try to climb aboard.

  • NO, you wicked dyke

  • cumara0seadog, forget the behavior of the modern Christian. Seems you've been taken for a ride by their acts. What you need to realize is that if that dude Jesus performed those acts written in those books, if those reports of through an act of his volition alone the physical laws of nature were suspended and certain blind people saw, lame people walked, deaf people could hear, then you as one of Its creations are to be pitied. The Creator is not involved and concerned with you at this time. Sad

  • Ah, you're wrong. Sad to believe in nothing.

  • Fool, you cannot judge his thoughts and appearances. Just because you believe in 'science' doesn't mean supernatural doesn't exist. Sigh... Sad yourself my pitiful friend.

  • she really looks like an angel

  • ok so what "religion" would you suggest? Christianity is a way of life, repetitive mindless and heartless acts such as brushing your teeth is religious. at least, thats my opinion.

  • If you are wanting true faith in the true God you will not find it in Christianity

    Christianity is trash, and that's what the people want

    A do nothing religion, go to a church, sing some song then go home again, gee what great works

    They keep pagan Holidays then want to condemn anyone who honors a pagan god, yet Jesus is a pagan god

    This fake Savior Jesus teaches against the laws and judgments of the true God, or that's what Christians say, however that is not true

    Christians are deceivers

  • And yet your here? Thats kinda ironic. Believe as you wish it's still a free country!

  • Oh really? Can you judge why my grandfather died in Muslim religion? Why does my uncle healed in Christianity? I am sorry for my sensitivity, but you ARE the trash. You are a mortal, like me. You cannot judge the truth and lies. And we do not just go to church, sing some songs and go home. We did it to keep the Sabbath day holy. We must believe ourselves that we are worshiping the faith of God. If you are the smart one here, try reviving Albert Einstein back, kid.

  • God word judges all men, you can't change His Laws, Statutes, Commandments, Precepts and Judgments that condemn the wicked actions of Christianity

    And yes I can judge between right and wrong.

    The apostle Paul wrote, "do you not know ye shall judge angels and the world, and can ye not judge these matters between yourselves.

    You do not keep the

    sabbath of the Living god but of the sun gods of Rome and you don't keep them holy, as many of you work, have someone to work for you, ride a horse...

  • have someone work for you, buy things, etc, etc, etc,

    You in NO way are Godly, Holy, God fearing people.

    All people Judge matters for right or for wrong.

    Just you answering my comments was judgment on your part.

    You feel I was wrong in what I said and felt the need to rebuke me, Just like a Christian not to obey it's own preaching Judge not least ye be judged.

    I do not take that verse from context as a christian, I quite believe in ones ability to judge, but by what or who's judgment, Gods

  • are based on the ever changing standards of society. One thing was bad yesterday but today it's ok. What was outrageous in the 50's is standard today. The line is never going to be fixed, things just get worse and worse. More and more is becoming and will become "acceptable" and we shouldn't speak out against others, because to the worldly wise, that is worse then the things they are doing. So we should just let everyone do what they want, that is "politically correct" but that is what will be..

  • Merle Haggard is great, Jewel sucks

  • LOL. At least you're honest

  • But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, ALL LIARS, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

  • what sort of picture is that for a song like this? A beautiful holy song and a slutty outfit, it aint right

  • Slutty outfit? You have to be kidding. Either that, or you're 100 years old and a spinster.

  • nice bit of grace brother

  • It's no wonder the Muslims think the west is evil, people just show grace to those who disobey God. Let's not say it's wrong! No. Let them do as they please, not as God desires. I can't stand it when girls don't cover themselves up, I think it's a disgrace and I really don't care if anyone else thinks it's ok, it will never be ok to me.

  • hahaha wow livin in the 1800's

  • We have to draw the line somewhere, but we are not.

    I get my moral standards from something that never changes, the Bible. While the world get their moral standards from society. If others do it, then it's fine for me to do it? No it's not, but if someone wants to do something wrong and they see others doing it, then they will do it as well and feel fine about it, because "everybody does it"

    We are living and have been living in a moral decline and it will never stop as long as our morals..

  • I am very sorry, my friend under my rudeness. I'll tell you why, because we do not care if you are with Christianity or not and we wish you good luck on choosing your sides. Girls do not need to cover themselves because why should you? Learn how to resist. Like some of us mortals don't know that...

  • who is the woman in the video??

  • It's Jewel, which is a mistake :P

  • jewel

  • Have been a fan of Merle from day one. Beautiful version.

  • Merle Does this song GREAT.

  • luv ya god

  • this song goes with my best friend that got saved today i love this song =]

  • One more for Jesus!! Praise the Lord!

  • GOD LOVES YOU MORE THAN ME!

  • Nice Post -

  • I love his voice, and when he sings for the Lord , well you cant get any better thn that. I have an album of his called for the momma that tried. all gospel songs he recorded for his momma its great.

  • Great voice - also a brilliant guitarist. Fender specialist.

    :o)

  • Thanks Merle, sung only as you could sing it.\ Praise the Lord.....Amen.....

  • un immortal song ! i do love it so much ! thanks to everybody !

  • What a wonderful rendition this is of one of the greatest songs of all time. Sung as only Merle can!!

  • Nice work!

  • however well intentioned you are, and i thank you for this beautiful music, its NOT Merle and Jewel, but Merle and his then wife Bonnie Owens, this was recorded on an album called "Land Of Many Churches" a double album from 1971,Merle has always had a strong spiritual nature, and is born again with his 5th wife,, and this restless soul hs finally found, somthing he craved, peace of mind..

  • Thanks .. was never too sure about this duet anyways .. it is hard to hear the female voice clearly.

  • yep,I still have a copy on vinyl.

  • @ivanmullan3000 ...That is fantastic news that Merle has found peace with God. Do you know what happened with his first wife. He sings a song about Kern River and someone being swept away in it. It made me wonder if it was his first wife.

  • @ivanmullan3000 ...Hi Ivan, do you mean Merle is a born-again Christian now? When did that happen? How do you know? It's great if it is true. Forgive me for being skeptical about anything I find on the internet. If it is true, I hope we hear his testimonial somewhere and/or in one of his songs. He usually wears his heart on his sleeve, at least in his songs. If you have a link for that, please pass it along. Did you see Evel Knievel's testimonial at the Chrystal Cathedral with Schuller?

  • What a blessed message this song gives, Eternal Life with a Loving God is ours if we but accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior! John 3:3. Thanks and God Bless!

  • awesome!
