[davfrui]

This is how I grew up in my fathers church.. although i finally figured out I was religious.. Now Im spiritual.. THANK YOU JESUS FOR WAITNG ON ME!!!

[ceasersaladlover]

So much feeling in this. Alan jackson sings with true commitment and tears on his face. What a man.

[jerimoreira1]

Simply too beautiful, Alan Jackson sings very'm your fan

[davfrui]

PRECIOUS AND HONORABLE TO THE LORD JESUS CHRIST..

[davfrui]

i WANT THIS EXACT RECORDING TO BE PLAYED THE DAY I GO HOME TO BE WITH GOD...

IM SERIOUS..

I grew up with this song, it tells how my love and Alan's is for our Lord Jesus Christ.

I can still hear my daddy singing it on sunday mornings...

[jeff62rey]

Brothers and sisters in Christ. The time of our Lord's coming approaches. The battle grounds are being drawn and the differences become starker and more defined. Keep telling the old, old story until your Master returns.

[davfrui]

When there is more of these men of God standing up for Jesus.. The world will be a better place to live...

[IphitoTheLiquid]

Flawless, beautiful... im 20 yrs old; and im the leader for leading the songs in my church, our church is small, but it has a big flaming heart. Our lord has touched me and made me come to realization that this world is lost without him, and that the light in me is growing, but being attacked by the world controlled by the once beauitful angel; the devil. Im ina fight but i know whats true, i do what i can do to follow god's will and his narrow path. I love christ and what he has done for us

[totalyconfused52]

LOVE ALAN JACKSON HIS GOSPEL CD IS AWESOME I HAVE IT!!!!

[toddmay438]

@davrui - Amen brother! :) This video is a great example of what men SHOULD be doing now days. Most church praise teams are dominated by women, but where are the men? At school events and teacher conferences, it's dominated by women, but where are the men?  This man took 3 minutes of his life to sing this song to proclaim his love for the LORD, imagine how society would change if ALL men took just 3 minutes to share the love of Christ.

[GINGRRBRDGRL11]

@toddmay438 Amen to you, too, brother! We need strong men of faith to stand beside us and proclaim the Lord. We women cannot do it alone. I thank God for Alan Jackson, and every man who opens his mouth to testify his love for Jesus.

[davfrui]

Praise God for men of God who proclaim him publicly. Thank you Mr Jackson. This took me back to my roots when I was a child in church. My daddy rasied me baptist and it was the best thing ever happened to me in life. It took me 32 years to fully come back. I checked in church as a CEO Christmas and Easter Only CEO.

[jeff62rey]

Brothers and sisters, this is the Time of Harvest, the acceptable time of the Lord. I want to share a powerful story of witness. I came across a Youtube channel that was satanic, glorifying Church burning and the hatred of Christ and Christians. Calmly, with a prayer and the Holy Spirit guiding my fingers, I told the Old Story, and told those lost ones how dear they are to God. Today, I received a private message from a troubled youth, "Please tell me about Jesus. I'm afraid."

[welthawood]

@jeff62rey You have no idea how this bless me. I've been a Christian 42 years, and I love the old, old story. And the One about Whom the story is told.

[Nightcrawler70655]

@jeff62rey AMEN And God Bless You and all Christians.

[davfrui]

God's grace is sufficeint for me. I am not worthy but he is. Thank you father God for sending your son to die for our sins. YOU SAVED MY LIFE!!! I really appreciate it!! I say this in Jesus name AMEN...

[eloyroliveira]

Only very strong men can sing this song with tears on their eyes... God bless you, Mr. Jackson

[sunshinehi]

Jesus is the absolute best thing that ever happened to me ... no english words can ever tell you how grateful I am that you made me your own.

[quadro95]

@sunshinehi - so glad for you! If this is a new step for you, welcome to the family. I wish you all of the Lord's rich blessings for the future.

[bellaboo387]

I listened to Alan Jackson's CD Precious Memories for 4 years as I was battling cancer, and do believe that is why I am here today. Thank you Jesus.

[Lindblomz]

[mkl62]

I am am ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. I play the piano and organ. Today (July 31), we sang this as our Closing Hymn. It is #661 in Evangelical Lutheran Worship.

[wolfbabygirl2011]

After a battle with drugs I have found GOD again. I love me some Jesus. Id be lost without them

[Cody3oh3]

Alan jackson is a cool dude and I like is music

[BOYETTE4672]

THATS OUR JOB TO TELL GOD STORY AND LIVE IT AS AN EXAMPLE TO OTHERS AS BEST WE CAN IN GODS GRACE

[VLparker18]

Thank you for posting this. I heard his voice and fell inlove with it while watching Touched by an Angel. His voice is soo amazing to listen to. I would do it all day everyday if i could. thank you once again

[superscary21]

@VLparker18 Which episode of Touched by an Angel, I loved that show though my friends never knew.



[JEMCO2008]

Thank you I like this song when i was a child we had a player piano and I would play this over and over. Have fun from Earl

[MrCobrala]

amen! thanks a lot, it's really give a strength to a person like me who live in Indonesia.

[playl3itch4201]

more then likely he may have had somoe tears in his eyes when alan performed this it was for his mother bless that woman for making him sing these songs



[joyful1001]

I grew up religious but lost. It took me 31 years to truly realize that I was lost. One December night I stepped over the line from eternal darkness to eternal life. What a difference. Unsaved folks like I was, have no idea what they are missing. Praise U Jesus.

[cadensmom25]

@joyful1001 Amen to that!

[NorthTulsaBoy]

@joyful1001

I'm so happy for you !

That is wonderful.

[jamieschultea]

@joyful1001 Amen!

[zLOSTNOMOREz]

@joyful1001 It took me 39 years to see the truth. I was never raised in church and would tell others that they were nuts for believing in a God that did not exist.But all along i knew that i was wrong,i just did not know who to find my way to him. But praise God he never lost faith in me and Aug 2010 he saved me from my sinful life. Those who dont know him can not understand what a glorious day that is when you fall on your knees and feel his arms around you,there is no greater love than his!

[joyful1001]

@zLOSTNOMOREz praise God for your story.Keep telling it!

[TheBogdan33]

@joyful1001 Jesus brother, Jesus. God Bless you friend!

[davfrui]

@joyful1001 Same with me. I was religious. I thought repeating the sinners prayer and gettings baptized was all I had to do. Now that I let the spirit take over, I know what true love is. In Christ. Serving God by telling others about his son everywhere I go.. Thank you Jesus...

[unclesonnysgirl]

@joyful1001 Amen!



[TheCINDYBATES]

MY VERY FAVORITE SONG!! LOVE IT

[Unitixx]

[TheCINDYBATES]

ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!! THANKYOU FOR POSTING THIS VIDEO!

[playl3itch4201]

i would love to be in that church if allen was singing

[insane4christ2]

The only STORY people need to hear is one of God's love

[andychristian777]

i like this song

[mrfarmerjimbob]

I don't know, Pumpkinseed--I was like5 to 8 or 9 years old--over 50 years ago. I don't think I ever knew who the singer or singers were. I just remember the song, & remember that I liked it. I suppose with a little research a person could find out.

[mrfarmerjimbob]

When I was a (little) kid back on the farm in SD, my mom used to listen to a radio program called "The Back to the Bible Broadcast". I Love to tell the Story was the theme song for the show. It really takes me back, all the way to the 50's. Great times. Mr Jackson is one of my favorite singers--head and shoulders above most of Nashville!

[PumpkinSeed17]

@mrfarmerjimbob That's with the bass or baritone singer, right? Do you know his name? I was hoping to find that version here. :)

[JEMCO2008]

Thank you for the post.

[crogger321]

I am not a fan of Alan Jackson but I do love this song. Reminds me of my grandma.

[gloyahoo]

Alan Jackson does exceptional singing religious songs - this is one of my favorite songs. My dad use to sing this song to me when I was growing up. God Bless You , Alan. Beautiful sing.

[grannymax10]

I love this song.

[EDMOBEA]

Thank you twofiress for your video! God bless you.

[jlocy1]

truss601 ... the man Jesus died even for you........

[MarcusMinnesota]

If you've shared your faith in Jesus Christ with someone, will you write to me about it? I'm working on a project to encourage others to share their faith, thank you.

Send an email to me at ThePastorsStudy1@yahoo.com

[joyful1001]

I love YOU Jesus. You fixed my heart. Thank You for the heart operation - conversion.

[cassio6460]

allen jackson always puts out great songs about the lord or just a simple country song....

[wendell324]

this song is and inspiration of having fafith

[ptsemmg]

Great song 

[soley2]

what a beautiful a song and Alan is such a great singer every song he sends shivers down my body God bless everyone

[newcreationmusiclwf]

Thank God for a man that is not ashamed of his salvation, his Savior and Lord.

[Roslowich89c9040]

Anyone who doesn't like this music, this performer, this music video, or the subject of the music is probably not among the target demographic. We all have free will and we all make our choices about what we choose to "Like", or who we choose to LOVE

[dersongaspa]

alan jackson realmente é o melhor !!!

[Adebrunetta]

he has a country voice

[Bondidog]

@Adebrunetta You sure about that?

[Adebrunetta]

@Bondidog yes, i am :)) . I mean he has a voice made for country :P

[RebekahC1987]

As Christians we should all love to tell the story. Night ya'll.

Lord Jesus Christ loves n saves. <3 :)

It satisfies my longings as nothing else can do. :)

[skontor]

i love this song so so much, thanx for composing it, God bless ya.

[mamalynnhenning]

I believe Alan Jackson is the closest I've ever come to falling in love with a celebrity. His wife is a lucky woman!

[charlottebeckster]

I love to listen to Alan Jackson singing these old hymns. I know these songs by heart but his fluid voice never ceases to amaze me. :)

[dennyboy40]

What a great song, and sung by a great singer.

[844jim]

The more I see the things of this earth, they age and lose their value, the more I want to sing "the old old story that will be my theme in glory".

[loribolen1]

see how many people could be saved if we all would do what god put us on earth to do ... the good lord gave him this voice to sing of praise and glory to the lord.. not country music its a shame ....

[jolien58]

Wow !! my favorite country singer

beautiful thank you.

[RebekahC1987]

I love this song. Lord Jesus Christ, the greatest story told. :)

[davehutchinson67]

@RebekahC1987 Amen..ask old Longinius....the Roman who put the spear in our savior's side..then later in that fateful day said..."surely this man is the Son of God" that from a roman centurion..talk about a hardcase and real tough guy...roman centurions had to keep order over 80 men in the roman legion..try that for day at the office. If our God can turn Old Longinius, anyone can be saved. Jesus can touch deep inside anyone's soul and bring about the change.

[RebekahC1987]

@davehutchinson67 Thank you for that sweet comment. I had made a comment about salvation on another page. A man asked me a question about Jesus' comming back. I answered the question he asked me. Then he went off on me like a crazy person. I am trying to just be nice and ignore it. Maybe he is just immature. I don't know. I was nice in my answere. I thought ok. Why would he ask my opinion if he didn't want my opinion. I thought maybe he should have asked me for his opinion.

[bronek12able]

Przemiła cudowna piosenka - z przyjemnośia wysłuchałem - dziekuję za miłe wrażenia.

[readJames48]

Go sing it A.J!

[Corrie121]

Alan Jackson is a wonderful vehicle by which to convey the Christian message.

Very inspirational.

Thank you for sharing.

[diestelhorst21]

AMen ot that last comment

[bulldogfever123]

An awesome video and awesome testimony for me. God Bless.

[JAMES69605]

My friend Alan Jackson you is very wanted here in Brazil. I have its compact disc in my car and hear every day. I sing its musics and the times I make versions in Portuguese to sing in the church. I would like very I know it one day personally. Who knows if thus God to allow. A grating I hug

I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. I play the piano and organ. Today (May 16), I played this as the closing hymn at a local Lutheran Church that I filled in at. It is #661 in Evangelical Lutheran Worship.

[tuscaroraRain]

great work Mr. Jackson! The total truth! I have another one to add to my faverites! :)

[shane7ful]

He has an amazing voice. Awesome !! I love his Voice....

[setelunico]

Grande Alan Un Himno muy hermoso

[jhovy143]

long live allan,,, you are really a gifted one... God Bless!!!

[Serglish]

To God be the glory and praise! Thank you Mr. Jackson for singing hymns, something not many do, what a pleasure and blessing it is to hear this hymn sung in such a way! God bless the old time religion!

[5656881]

indeed JESUS satisfied our longing because..HE is a faithful to us..even sometimes were not faithful to..him

[Jackie371]

Love watching and hearing Alan singing the old traditionals. Fits his character. I hope everyone went out and bought this dvd. It's awesome from start to finish. Lots of personal touches from Alan's family.

[robertrutger]

I fall to my knees when I hear this song. Thank you Alan for such an amazing rendition. Thank you Jesus for dying for my sins.

[troy1387]

I love to hear that hammond B3 in the background! That just sets it all off! I don't care for hearing country singers singing gospel, but sadly this guy sings it better than most of the clowns in most churches!

[bc78260]

I used to vacation in Baguio when I was a kid. The United States had a beautiful resort up there. I have fond memories of the Philippines Islands, I lived there the better part of my youth.

[lGaming]

GREAT SONG

[justtim]

@lGaming Sadly, not all worship leaders have the talents that "big names" have. However, God is hearing the heart of the worshiper, and that's what truly matters. I hardly think the Almighty judges those with lesser talent as "clowns." I would rather believe that He sees us all as His children, and loves to hear our praises regardless of our abilities to sing.

[jlujan69]

@Lordofpardon79

Baguio is a welcome break from the hustle and bustle of MM. I like the cool temps there.

[supernan101]

where can i purchase this album ???.These old hymns brings back so many good memories . and allan jackson you are a precious gem...

[Tulare73]

@supernan101 The Album is called Precious Memories and you can buy the entire album at Itunes for $9.00 I know cause I bought it over th Thanks Giving weekend.

[ECinEC]

Thanks YouTube for having this song on...Thanks Alan for singing and sharing it to others (what a witness) It is so comforting

[eliiise2]

Love u, Alan. Beautiful song.

[passionatecutie]

Wow...cool song!! Go Alan!! Beautiful!!

[khuaua]

somebody knows as if it calls this type of hat that it uses?

[totallytempo]

@khuaua:  a cowboy hat you idiot.

[Nateness01]

Alan's amazing voice and musical talent brings a special brilliance to these songs

[latina2932]

im always blessed everytime i hear his christian song to God be the glory!God is so good all the time!AMEN

[anamarieus]

Props To Jesus!!!!!!!!!!

[countrydancer2010]

i love this song and with Alan doing a cover on this story just makes it all that much beter and i think he should do so much more

[Freiheitsliebender64]

Yes this Story is TRUE, Christ will come soon and bring Us HOME!!!

Alan Voice and Feeling are Amazing!

Thank you!

[tohru89]

is there no version of the song with just the 4 verses?!

[NikkouDaisuke]

The version I have in "The Old School Hymnal" eleventh edition has 4 verses (and the chorus).

They begin "I love to tell the story, of unseen things above. " 2- ILtTtS more wonderful it seems 3- ILtTtS 'tis pleasant to repeat, and 4- ILtTtS for those who know it best.

I have a Sacred Harp hymn book around here somewhere that may have a different verson, but wouldn't know where to find it right now.

[boydysurf]

We sung this at Bible study a week ago and I cannot get the words and tune from playing in my mind and heart. Love love love it.

[ghanithefunny]

Living in a country where we are staved for good Christian music this is like nothing I have heard before.God Bless Alan and hope he will continue to be a blessing to millions across the Globe.

[rykpa]

Keeps events of today in perspective.

[TreeHugger42695]

I know what they're going through. My grandmother just recently died from cancer. I miss her a lot, but each day with a little less sorrow, and a little more peace and joy from the knowledge that she's in heaven waiting for me and my family at the gates. I hope that the doctor's wrong. I know they often are. Also remember, there is a reason for everything. Please, if you have any questions, or just need someone to talk to, I'm here.

Alan Jackson is saved, so therefore he shall receive many abundant blessings from God :)

Alan Jackson could sing someone's shopping list, and it would be a hit.

He is unbelievable.
