This was my Grandma's favorite song and it was played at her funeral two years ago. During the Martin family Christmas my Uncle Harold played the guitar while several of us sang this song. Now whenever I hear it I think of my family.
@hankwilliams1000 Before you start throwing stones, you should consider that in the Bible God told Joshua to kill every living thing inside of Jericho.
i still have my family bible which dates back to the eighteen hundreds, it has ornate wood covers and is very beautiful but terribly worn. in the middle it has spaces for births, deaths, and marriages. Ours was so full we had to start writing them down on loose-leaf paper and putting in the book. i rember when my grandma died and were seeing who the bible was going to go to, i had the great honor of getting it and i cherish it deeply. God Bless
I listened to this song tonight...loved it. I would like to sing it with a group sometime...it is a worthwhile song with real meaning to it...Praise the Lord!
This song never fails to make me cry. So moving and warm, just great songwriting. And I'm agnostic by the way :) Like SonnyHavnaNelson says, just enjoy. Peace
Johnny Cash is a christian and Willie also has his beliefs the same, if you don't like the song why do you listen to it? Its posted here for people to enjoy! And I really am!!
@LionessGG66 Willie is a believer in Jesus Christ, him smoking pot, partying, drinking, and fucking wild women has nothing to do with his heavenly reward. He treats people good and he loves Jesus Christ. that's the free gift of salvation my friend.
Hey I'm all for respecting whatever decent someone wants to believe. But when you start putting the Bible on par with the Koran just b/c your politically correct teachers tell you that then I gots to say NAH. One book is of God. The other is man made.
@FavreianVengeance Muslims believe the Koran was told by God to Muhammad. Christians believe that the Bible is the word of God written by humans. This has nothing to do with being PC. Depending on what country you're from, you're probably going to be brought up believing a different religion. When it comes down to it, both are man-made, and both have created some of the scariest psychos on earth.
It is a satanic lie written by a disgusting, bloodthirsty madman named Muhammed - may his name and memory be obliterated. Only the Holy Bible is the word of God. Allah is a lie - our Lord is the real, one and only God
@EdwarDixie I don't want to disappoint you, but Allah is, according to their beliefs only a different name of the same God we believe in. They even believe in Jesus Christ - although not believing in him being a Son of God may be a mistake. Why don't we just all acknowledge that, despite all the differences, we're all children of one God, whatever he is called?
Bible, Koran, Torah, Guru Granth Sahib, Bhagavadgita, Mahabharata, Tao or whatever religious book, text or scripture you consider sacred, basically agrees on how we humans wanna be treated 'n' how we wanna treat each other so why don't we all just cut the crap, kick back 'n' listen to a great song written by the master himself, Willie Nelson, instead of pushin' our different religions, philosophies 'n' opinions down each others throats?!:)
@OriginalJoseyWales Im not athiest but what are your thoughts on the simple fact that more people have died in the name of religon than for ANY other reason? Meanwhile the children of this once great country are pathetically behind in science and math compared to other countries that we play mommy and daddy to! Things are bad these days and religon doesnt seem to be helping!
@DrVegasIII 11 For this is the message which YOU have heard from [the] beginning, that we should have love for one another; 12 not like Cain, who originated with the wicked one and slaughtered his brother. And for the sake of what did he slaughter him? Because his own works were wicked, but those of his brother [were] righteous. 1 John 3: 10,11
@DrVegasIII 10 The children of God and the children of the Devil are evident by this fact: Everyone who does not carry on righteousness does not originate with God, neither does he who does not love his brother.
@DrVegasIII It is the failure of man to apply the wisdom of the scriptures that has resulted in these atrocities. And the failure of man in no way nullifies the wisdom of God as set out in the bible. In that way the bible will always be vindicated.
@DrVegasIII I am aware of the atrocities committed in the name of religion. But a defence must be mounted for the wisdom of the principles laid down in the bible such as loving ones enemies, honouring ones father and mother.
This is a beautiful song. Like bricks and mortar built the house, the Holy Bible built the home.
