[drclayberg]

wonderful ,great lp !!!

[Charlibren]

You definitely did this song justice with your video. This Album was my intro to Christian Contemporary Music... loved Barry's intro ... could see him slapping the dolphins with dishrags. Thanks for taking the time to post it!

[tudisco71]

I can't believe how long its been since I have heard this song..... My parents had this on vinyl..... This song is so what my heart feels sometimes.....

[MrGringo78]

very beautiful song with a very beautiful visual composing! Thankx!

[karen4kids2]

Beautiful



[audiotrax2000]

This is one of the most deeply romantic, sexy songs I have ever heard in my life. Makes me melt every time I hear it. Thank you Barry. :)

[phxradiovox]

swood33--do you have a copy of the To the Bride album (doubt it ever became a cd)? I have looked for it since my days in college 30 years ago. McGuire was one of CCM's true early pioneers.

Thanks.

[drclayberg]

@phxradiovox

larry and berry....who could ask for better heros !

[swood33]

On his "To the Bride" album with the 2nd Chapter of Acts, this song follows his dolphin intro, which is one of the better Christian testimonies I've ever heard.

[DaveT2wheels]

[iampeterpam]

Magnificent

[jubjub2112]

This song reminds me of my years living in Czechoslovakia . . . almost 20 years ago now . . . just a perfect song . . . I used to play it every morning as I woke up . . .

[i2iK9]

jtww77 is right! I'd love to see a version with the 1975 "Lighten Up!" intro too. The story makes the song even more poignant.

That said, you've done justice to a a real gem. Thanks!

[jtww77]

I love this song - but I sure would like to see the introduction from the 1975 album included

[Guidomom]

Incredible !

[rukiddin1]

Thanks,you did it justice. :-) I used to listen to this song on the album where Barry introduced the song by telling the story of hanging over the edge of the boat,seeing dolphin,and poppin them with a towel.

[rukiddin1]

Thanks for sharing. I always loved the album that had Barry introducing the story by telling the story of hanging over the boat popping dolphins with the towel. :-)

[keymankeys1960]

Yeah God IS Good

[Donralfo]

Blessings to ALL and especially Barry.

[sounddude51]

One of my favorite McGuire songs.

We will miss Larry, but he left us so much of his heart in the music we still have, that every time we play his songs, it will be like hearing from an old friend again. See you again one day, Larry! Enjoy being home...

[imheadinhome]

Also one of my favorite Barry songs! You did a beautiful touching job! Thank you!!!

[AloofMedia]

Larry Knechtel on piano. The late, great Larry Knechtel, that is. August 4, 1940 - August 20, 2009. RIP, Larry.

[sfarson]

This song blessed me so back in 1980 and I'm moved to tears to find it again. Thank-you Lord.

[jubjub2112]

I used to listen to this song every morning as I woke up when I lived in what was then Czechoslovakia . . . really brings back memories . . .

[schwartzadventure]

He's still calling me....... Makes me give my heart to Him all over again. I sure do love you, Jesus.

[aerycksmusic]

His words are the ones in my heart that I just cannot say, withou him; and no-one says them better than Barry.

[robatrhema]

Barry joined me on my radio show last week to promote Child sponsorship with Tear Fund New Zealand and we both sang this song. Seems both of us have 'modified' it slightly since this version but it came out alright.

[mountainviewid]

I was elated in seeing Barry last summer in Colville, Washington at Rendevous Days. I worked with Barry for a day as a Newbie. As an Ekklesian, we shared a reunion of heart.

'Calling Me Home' brings it all back. On his first album 'Lighten Up', Barry notes our nation standing on the 'The Eve of Destruction', cautions 'Don't Blame God for the Sins of America', yet extends hope that God is calling each of us home.

Blessings always Barry!

Thank you Noah316! Super video on a great song.

[markferchland]

Barry and his music were meant something special to me back then. I which I could get his first two Christian albums on CD. He still speaks to my soul.

[nikita000001]

beautiful, I use to sing it all the time, thanks!

[junqstuff]

I haven't heard about the curse words, please verify before you slander. Did you read Barry's blog? You completely missed what he was saying. No, he didn't say he doesn't believe in the physical 2nd coming. He beleives in using every moment to the fullest w/o worry for the future.

[drbcook]

His music has touch many lives..

[lastastronaut]

Barry sounds a lot like Bob Cull in the style of the song here...nice

[Tailwinds56]

What great memories! Thank you for posting this. I remember laughing for hours listening to the story of the dolphins and this song 32ish years ago??? Jesus you are so amazing thank you for being the one who makes all this possible and loves us this much.

[gareof]

Love that cross in the clouds at the end - makes me think of another of Barry's great songs "He's Comin' Back"

[AuroraKismet]

I will never be a christian but I love music.a christian friend played me the live version of this song. I can still picture Barry bopping dolphins on the head.Thank you so much for this video!Such a lovely peaceful song sung with passion.

[hiswheeler]

Wish the story of Barry's seeing the dolphins when he was younger and playing with them by

'bopping" them with a towel had been included. Such a precious story! The dolphins begged for more! He played with them for quite awhile... great song! Thanks!

[Dano853]

Beautiful song, Beautiful video, and ended axactly as I thot it would. Bless you, brother

[keymankeys1960]

I also knew this song from way back when but its as fresh as ever.

[schvepps]

Just busy reading a book by Dr Randy Alcorn called "Heaven" and it's blowing my mind. I know this song from way back in the late 70's and loved it then.2nd chapter of Acts and Phil Keaggy and all them dudes. Awesomely well done video. Together with Randy Alcorn's Book enlightening me on what Heavens gonna be like makes one Homesick for Heaven. Thanx 4 the video

[ambassador4x]

Great video, great song.

Thanks

[HepcatNZ]

I personally knew Barry back in 65 during his Eve of Destruction days.... Great guy even back then... He taught me alot... So glad he is still oerforming... Never heard this song by him ... fabulous..

[minimuffinman]
