  • Everytime I hear this song now I always picture Lee Hays in Alices restaurant lol

  • I love this song. I love Elvis' version, I love church groups, I love it acapella. This one, though, is my favorite.

  • arlo giving out the lyrics,.......just like pete taught him.......love it.

  • How wonderful to perform with a grandchild as Pete has here!

  • Pete and Arlo to amazing artists. You can sure tell he's woody's child

  • Thank God for Pete Seeger. I know some will think that an ironic statement, but I mean it. Kinda like ole Arlo, too.

  • @LeeSawyer

    Listen to my song "Just another folk singer" The best copy can be found on You Tube (The last gig).

  • @LeeSawyer Pete turned 92 this past week. He's still the same ol' Pete.

  • You go Woody's boy! You do him proud for sure.

  • Told my wife the other day just how perfect this song was to Arlo--and to Pete, together.

  • Look at these two, Arlo was a young lad and Pete looked almost as old as he looks now.

    I think everyone is blessed who has a friend and mentor like Pete Seeger.

    Thank ya all

  • Good God A'mighty, how I miss the 70's. A time when TRUE TALENT reigned supreme. FUCK YOU American Idol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @bigman1916,

    Ya 'no', there was a bit of toleration back then. I was there, though marginal--one of those marching March-on-Washington-persons stepping forward with the actual Leaders.

    Obviously this tune has always inspired Arlo. And so it has always stirred me. My most recent appreciations of Arlo's artistry is well provided by the most recent presentation of his feelings via his music here on YouTube.

  • Seek first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness, and we will have everything we need.

  • This may be OLD,but it's wonderful. This song means so much to so many. For me it's a reminder of a Grandfather that I never met. And remember, the song is older than this performance.

  • @debbiedamoose the song dates back to the eighteenth century: John Newton the slave ship captain turned abolitionist and preacher. Been around for centuries, but no one (that I've ever heard) sings it quite like Arlo.

  • Brings tears to my eyes.

  • Man is this OLD!

  • thanks you tube

  • Thank you for posting. Great!

  • Hooray for Arlo and Hooray for Pete! What a combination! Happy 90th birthday, Pete!

  • Amen-brothers and sisters! Amen!!:)

  • Wonderful... I don't know what to say.... Arlo is best!

  • @kinskifreak yep, I just gotta love him! Love this heartfelt rendition.
