Not having paid much attention to Country Music, I was unaware of Vern Gosdin, till I heard him on the radio recently, by chance, singing a Christmas song. What "a voice," and "the voice" is truly deserved for him. Thank you for this retrospective of his life and contribution! Truly!
Sometimes when I hear him come across the radio...I know that God sent the "VOICE" back to sing this song, to give us hope that one day He will return for us all.
It's G-O-S-D-I-N, not G-O-S-D-E-N, right? It's a beautiful song that needs and deserves to be heard. As is, it won't show up in response to a GOSDIN search. I'm a big fan of Mr. Gosdin, but I'd never heard it before and I'm not sure how I got to it on here. I bet there'd be a lot more than 35,000 hits if the name were correct.
It's a little late in coming but here it is in the last word in the first line is (lost) and the word in the second line of the chorus is "he rose from the ashes where he lay
Hi My dear friend Vern Now you play with the Angel Band in Haven I sing your song in Canada . we still love you Vern R.I.P. Brother. Love you Bob Pitre
RIP, Vern. God bless you and receive you into glory. Thanks for all of the great country and gospel music that you provided for your legions of fans over the years. You will be enormously missed among your peers and fans.
If I had to pick my favorite tune of yours, it would have to be a toss up, between; This Ain't My First Rodeo, and If Your Going To Do Me Wrong, Do It Right. You've had so many great hit's! Thanks for the great music!
My older brother is a huge VG fan and turned me on to him so I had to go out and buy a cd. Country music sure ain't what it used to be. Thanks for posting this beautiful song, love it.
AMAZING ~

I love country music and I love gospel music. This song is one of my favorites because it blends the two effectively.

a) last word in the first line:
"you lay there in the darkness all alone (low)"
b) the second line of the chorus:
"and he rose from the (irishes) where he laid"
If anyone of the english speaking ppl could help me, that would be great
