A SONG THAT WAS SUNG IN MY MOMS PASSING GOD BLESS X0X0X

[lokelsey]

[onebaud]

My wonderful cat of 15 years passed away last month. But this song tells me he is in a wonderful place. Noooooootttttt! The crematory is not a wonderful place. He is not with his friends, his friends were not cinders. He went back to where he was before birth. Not a bad place or painful. You did not cry til you got here did you. Oblivion is Heaven.

[tonybates100]

if he didn't make but i sure he did we will alway be seeing him soon

[BOBBY47082]

AMEN!



[AriaAJR]

I am so ready for God to take me home. I'm so tired of the pain others are causing. I'm so tired of being so tired. I'm so tired of my body hurting so much every day that I don't feel like I have a life. I am thankful that God gave me a husband almost 40 yrs a go that loves me more then he loves his own life. I know God is in control of my life.

[Lookingbacknow]

Shivers down my spine.....:o)

[kotilo375]

Very beautiful poem, i love this,thank you for sharing my sweet friend.

[ogwalots]

A great singer

[liddiebug1970]

In memory of my Daddy who went to his Heavenly home June 5, 1994. Though it's been 17 years it seems like yesterday. I remember that day so vividly. I love you Daddy and miss you so very much. Please Lord give Daddy a big hug and kiss for me and let him see a glimpse of his precious grandson. Till we meet again.

[lulafalleaf53]

[jolee99]

This poem "Should you go first and I remain" and the song "Beyond the Sunset" are perfect match. Life is fragile but we share the same Hope and Unity in Christ.

[MultiMountaingirl]

our time on this earth is almost over.Soon Jesus will come in a cloud of glory to take us home.

[1943AngelEyes]

Thank you so very much for sharing this with me. Its strange that this particulae prose should have been read and sent to me as my precious husband of twentyone years went on to be with GOD on our anniversary Aug 25th two weeks ago and he had a habit of taking daily walks at least three or four a day but due to my illness I could not walk that path with him and at a time of grieving and prayer to GOD I asked LORD if I only knew where he went on his walks and what he did or thought about.

[TOMAN4EVER]

Bless his beautiful heart!

[TOMAN4EVER]

I wish I had the oppertunity to sing this at my ( absent) fathers funeral, I never knew him, but I loved him and thus was huis favorite song, I was ionly 16 Y.o, when he passed, I maybe saw him 2 times in my life, but, guess what, WE look just alike, and I love him!!!!!!!

[dxmania95]

it doesnt matter how mant times i watch this i still have 2 fight the tears it is such a beautiful poem told by one of the most wonderful people ever 2 walk this Earth.

[berthaledford]

george did a beautiful job with this vary special poem it means a lot to me. Because my james and I chose tis to be our poem for we dident only want to share our live here on eart but wanted to continue on the other side. and he passed away on 01-01-2010. I miss hime greatly

[ozarkcrafter]

I have always enjoyed this and it always brings tears to my eyes thinking of those I will see again in heaven.

[rejhhill]

I cannot listen to this without crying. My husband went Home last May.

[wompo67]

Rest In Peace George. What a great man.

[SteveMB1959]

So Lovely. I have this by Irish singer, Daniel O'Donnell, called Beyond The Sunset. I love this version.

[blujeanswm03]

This man had the most beautiful bass voice of all time. When he did poems such as this one there was never a dry eye in the room.This is one of the sweetest poems and I thank "hoover4000" for posting it and my sweet friend Sharon (crackerjacks46) for sharing it with me.

God Bless Us All....

Smiles and Hugs, Joyce :):)xx

[lolynn726]

Mr. Younce... it is your tender song and voice that has allowed me to finally come to the grips of losing my husband and son some 12 years ago. If you can..keep watch over them there in heaven until I come home to greet them and greet you with a hug and gentle handshake

[TOMAN4EVER]

@lolynn726 My Lord, to lose a child and a mate, how can anyone get through that even with Christ's grace, Bless you dear one, may the Lord be your constant guide until you meet your family once more, my heart is so saddened for you, and yet, lift's in gladdness for you will see them again!

[windofGod27]

Just beautiful so so beautiful

[rejhhill]

A moving song since I lost my husband this year!! I will see him again!

[iheartyoohtube]

[fatbustersamurai]

@iheartyoohtube yeah me too.

[totallyforgiven]

This is very moving. I was watching a Gaither special and they said his wife had already went to heaven and he was not in good health, which is why he was sitting down, and a short time later, he went home to heaven to.

[markcash]

George was in bad health, but his wife was/is still alive as far as I know. I haven't hard anything about her passing away.

Mark

[klm1969]

[jerryl1000]

I am so sorry for your great loss. I have been in love with my wife for 54 years. I can not imagine my life without her, but I know that one of us will probably be left behind in the not to distant future. If I am the one left, I will have to carry on just as you, but this song will stir memories of better days and reassure me that we will meet again on that other shore. May God bless you and be with you and may he bring happiness into your life once again.

Blessings to all! She also loved to hear George Younce sing! I hope she is hearing him in heaven!  DEBRA IN TENN.

[ulsterstan]

Late Hank Williams recorded this in the early 5o,s, George does a great job though .

[sassypearl]

This song was known in my family and church as the promese that no matter if we died there is the christ promese that we will be together again.. and that will be ou forever faith

[Shasta11111111]

This is probably my favortie song, and who better to sing it than George Younce. I recently lost an uncle who I hadn't seen since I was three years old. I'm twenty now but through frequent phone calls and letters we had became very close. After his passing the first thing I did was put this song in my cd player and listen to it. Thank you.

[joycieee333]

Thank you so much Hoover for posting. This is beautiful

[PolishRoots]

How touching, I send a heartfelt Thank you to hoover4000 for taking the time to post all these wonderful videos of love,peace, and inspiration.Even through tears of sadness come tears of joy... Leaving what we now know for what we once knew.(To be reunited with those who have gone before us)

[klm1969]

[whatsay2]

Beautiful!

[tampababs58]

this has to be the most beautiful poem.... george was surely gods champion..... i sit and think of all my loved ones who have gone on and it gives me such comfort knowing someday i will join them

[Job407a]

He has put to music a thought I oft times encounter as I watch my wife sleep and I realize we are not getting any younger. It takes a lot of years of marriage for two to fit together perfectly and then it is time for one to go. Alas for rapture.

[jakehess27]

George is without a doubt the best bass singer to me that ever lived .

[mdwright48]

he sure as and will be forever loved for his voice and this one is really sad thank you jakehess27

[sjdb260993]

George Younce was the best bass singer in the world!

[russianpride16]

[shonajw]

just beautiful

[marlene5695]

What a beautiful voice God gave him to bless other ones. He will be missed but he is singing in heaven for my Mother.

[benwrong46]

This reminds me of my grandma. She died almost a year ago.

[drbcook]

Heartouching indeed !

[Othy238]

Should you go first and I remain,

One thing I'd have you do:

Walk slowly down that long, lone path,

For soon I'll follow you.

I'll want to know each step you take

That I may walk the same,

For some day down that lonely road

You'll hear me call your name.

[Othy238]

I'll hear your voice, I'll see your smile, Though blindly I may grope, The memory of your helping hand Will buoy me on with hope. Should you go first and I remain, To finish with the scroll, No length 'ning shadows shall creep in To make this life seem droll. We've known so much of happiness, We've had our cup of joy, And memory is one gift of God That death cannot destroy.

[Othy238]

Should You Go First by Albert Kennedy "Rosey" Rowswell Should you go first and I remain, To walk the road alone, I'll live in memory's garden, dear, With happy days we've known. In Spring I'll wait for roses red, When fades the lilac blue, In early Fall when brown leaves call I'll catch a glimpse of you. Should you go first and I remain, For battles to be fought, Each thing you've touched along the way Will be a hallowed spot.

[sframs07]

my wife has had two heart attacks and she is only 35.this song makes me think of her going home before me.this sure is a tear jerker

[Othy238]

May Jesus lift your heart, my mum has just had a stroke (85). I feel for you. Lift your eyes see Jesus full in the face and know He loves you both.

Know His peace brother, I will shed tears for you and your wife.

[Othy238]

My mum passed on to be with her saviour Monday. so this song has extra meaning now.

[Rubiglo]

Sorry Othy My Mom died in September and I miss her sooooooo much, so I know how you feel.

[rong001]

Is there any way I can get a copy of the audio of this? I would love to have it for my wife's funeral tomorrow afternoon! Any help will be appreciated so very, very much. I just joine here trying to find this song/poem. Thanks for any help.

[CindyE041464]

Now this is my kinda music. I was raised on Southern Gospel and I will always love the old saints; some who have gone home;who sang them. This particular one shows 2 particular favorites of mine-George Younce & the precious Jake Hess. I hope to be like them when I grow up. Although I am 43 yr old mom of 2 grown girls & married to the most Godly man I have known for the last 24 and a half yrs.-My Steve.

[townywowny]

man ill tellya im 18 yrs old but i love love loved that man right there... it killed me wen i found out he passed, he is the reason i started singing bass... man ill miss him dearly

[Jicejordan]

This poem kills me...I cry everytime I hear George say it...He was the entire reason I became a Southern Gospel singer. I'll miss him greatly.

[pavelkostov]

i hear hes a very low bass

[townywowny]

yea, he is a VERY low bass singer! he is the reason i started singing

[jimmurray9999]

George and Glen, there will never another 2 like them. The world is much sadder now but the time will come when we all get to hear them again.

[sigsound16]

i love this poem and the song. we'll miss you george but we'll see you soon.

[bubschumpert60]

George is saying in this video what we should all say to our parents and loved ones.
