I just discovered my Pawpaw has 3 months and my papa passed a year ago... lord I pray that his hands will be on my shoulder as I wake every morning and rest at night for as I hear this song... the tears I shed for them touch my lips again I pray to God to please watch over me...:'(
Thanks for this consoling song, I read your post when you wrote it and dedicated it to your late friend. God bless you as the words continue to console me since I lost my adult son, Ervin, on March 19, 2011 and the hurt seems to just linger. Please God, restore and help me as I listen to this beautiful song.
They sang this song at my uncles memorial. he was one of the 29 miners killed in the UBB Mine explosion in West Virgina last year. I miss him more and more every day and God Bless the other families who lost loved ones involved. You have a beautiful voice. It moves me :)
My grandfathers funeral was 2 day my uncle sang this song I love u papa u never let having one leg or anything else slow u down u were a great man and I hope 2 see you again in heaven we all love u
We all got to dedicate 3 songs to my dad.......as we went into the chapel they played this song, After speaking about daddy, they played Gone Too Soon By Michael Jackson, and as we filed out they played I'll Be Missin You by P. Diddy. R.I.P. Daddy......41 years wasn't enough.
AND I REGRET TELL HER HOW I AM SORRY I WAS MEAN TO HER AND I CAN'T AND MY GRANDMOTHER IS GONE AND ENJOY YOUR GRANDMOTHER EVERY DAY YOUR LIFE AND LOVE HER VERY MUCH AND
The song didn't start out with Vince Gill singing. The man singing, his name is James Patterson, and that's who he said was singing. James did great on this song. Keep up the good work James. We will be listening for you!!! God Bless You and your Family!
This song will forever make me think of my daddy, I was 4 when he passed away and this was the last song they played. I let my dad barrow my wing and they day I see him once again I will know my work on earth is done as well. ~in loving memory of Erik Grant Beebe~
Hi James, Its nice to meet you. This is one of my favorite songs and I love the way you sang it. What a wonderful tribute to your good friend BillyRay.
this song is so touching. i lost an uncle and this song just makes me think of him. my heart aches for everyone who has lost loved ones. i love God. thanks for the wonderful and touching song Vince Gill
It doesnt matter who is singing it. That is all a lot of people worry about about in a song. The song has meaning, and a purpose. It was written for a death. The original composer wrote it for his brother that died. So if you are more worried abut the voice than there is something wrong. This song means a lot to me, and a lot of other people. I think it is amazing how it can remind me of the loved ones that I hav lost in the past couple of years.
Does not live up to Vince Gill's go rest high on the mountain. You don't sound like Vince at all.When I die I want Vince's song Go Rest High On The Mountain played.
wow, this song brings tears to my eyes and u are totally awesome....words cant describe how beautiful this is...u are a STAR!!!! many NC stars fallin for u my friend!
*************************************** God bless u such a great dedication....

I did not have to now Billy Ray To say RIP to him and all of those lost that we have cared about so dearly... this was played at my Stepfathers funeral RIP Travis Hopper
Brother you have your own style and voice txture!! Stay original!!! Try and get someone to teach you vibrato!! As it is a key igrdient thing in this and many songs! Good job stsying in key!!! God bless
this songs gives me the feeling of inspiration and emptiness at the same time. I t makes me think of my father that died a year ago exactly next month. My god rest his soul!! I love you daddy!!
this song is played at alot of funerals. my grandpa passed away in may of 2009. they played this song at his funeral. ever since then this has been one of my favorite songs. but every time i hear i cant help but shed tears. RIP: PAPA
they play this song at alomost every funeral i have attented and when i listen to this song i think about my son I have lost and all my other love ones RIP MY BEAUTIFUL BABY BOY KAYDEN AND MY GREAT AUNT PAULINE AND MANY OTHERS LOVE U ALL VERY MUCH AND I KNOW Y'ALL ARE IN THE BEST PLACE THERE COULD EVER BE AND ILL MEET U THERE ONE DAY.......YOU MAY BE GONE FROM HERE ON EARTH BUT YOU SOUL LIVES ON IN OUR MEMORIES AND HEARTS MUCH LOVE
Oh wow, you do sound like vince....Amazing voice!! I love this song, i am writing a short story that is kind of...revolving around the song. Anyway this is an amazing cover, my favorite I've heard. Very very good, you have a talent. *hums with song*
James, you really do have a dang good voice. I work in the industry in Nashville, and you're voice blows away some of the bigger stars'. I'd love to hear how it sounds in a studio...
thanks for the great comment, but when you strip away all the background music, eq, and reverb, I have an average weak voice. the real talented people on here can sing straight into a cheap webcam and make your jaw drop. but I would love to get the chance to record in a studio, just to see how it is really done.
The Song started out with Vatince singing then goes over to a totally different person, who is good but He Is NO Vince Gill,, not even close. I love all of V.G. songs and this Song was played at my 3 Brothers' Memorials lost 1 Nov "06 1 on July 4, "07 then 1 Oct 2, 07. So I know that
sorry, I didn't mean to give the impression that this is Vince Gill, I thought I made it clear enough in the description. this is just me singing to some karaoke track i bought off of the internet.
@vmcdonald16 Oh wow, Im so sorry. I just lost my brother in May of this year (2010). Its so hard. I just cant imagine losing 3 so close like that. Were they in the service?
@76oldlady I decided to get back on your web site..I know now what I did..I started out on James Deans site..and went from there ..you sound somewhat like him.
I just wanted you to know that I listened to several and I really like your voice and you sing this very well..
So I will keep up with all you do on here..and enjoy ....Thanks for letting me know....Good luck to you..
we played this at my grandpa's funral. he died om oct 22 2009 on my b day am 13 teen now i miss you papaw you are the best man out thire i miss you love you
Nice job... thank you for dedicating to a "mutual" friend, Billy Raye, loved him too... he was a true "angel" here on earth, liked and missed by MANY... this is one of my Favs by Vince too...
This is a very nice and touching song. I dedicated this song to my brother Albert that was murdered May 26, 2008. His death was very tragic. I miss him every day and always. Part of me left w/ him. R.I.P Albert! Till we meet again. I Love You! You are Missed and Never Forgotten!!!
They played this song at my uncle funeral... i think about him every time i here this song......... I Miss U Uncle Pat....... R.I.P Love ur niece Kira
R.I.P gangan-my grandma that i was so clse to she died of mesothlima a rare cancer and we played this at her funeral along with angel by sarah mclaughin and also the dance by garth brooks she was so great i miss her so much she suffered for a year and she asked methe nite she died if i would be ok for her to take a rest forever and i said as long as u know how much ily and she said i do and i want u to know ily more than anything in this world
This was played at my grandpas funeral just about 7 years ago. I also had chosen it from my baby boys funeral back in 04. He was stillborn at 23 weeks. I like to believe my grandpa is taking care of him up in heaven. It keeps me going.
Oh wow, that was the best I've heard. It was a pleasure listing. Thank you for sharing. It really help me. I just a good friend and I wanted to hear the song in her memory.
thanks for the great comment, and I'm sorry for your loss. if you really want to hear a great version check out amandamjames cover of it, definately the best I've heard.
Rest in Peace Raymond William Toney and Jeffery Louis Toney both of you was more than family to me and i will greatly miss you. the 2 of you was my father's and i am lost without you but i must go on so that you live on in my memories . it will not be easy so i pray that you will look out for me cause i will need it!
This is so moving. Perfect for BillyRay. You do sound like Vince Gill, BillyRay was right. What a beautiful tribute to a man that is dearly missed by many. I miss him so much it hurts. Barb
This is absolutely beautiful, James, and such a moving version. It is fitting to do a song that BillyRay encouraged you to do that is also perfect for a memorial. RIP, dear BillyRay. --Jan
R.I.P Daddy 9/02/08 I LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU!!! We played this song at his funeral and later found the music to it in his guitar case. (He shot himself in the head). So sad!
In Loving Memory to my cousin who was killed in a car crash today is a year that she has been gone I miss her so much! And to my grandpa and grandma and best friend may you rest in peace I miss you and love you so much so you one day in heaven!!
This is such a beautiful and truthful song. You did a great job. I had played at my dearly, beloved Mimmy's memorial service on August 21, 2008. And oh how I cried when she died on August 19, 2008. She was 89. Thanks. May my sweet dearly, beloved Mimmy go rest high on that mountain and go to Heaven ashouting.
The First time I heard this was Yesterday at my Loving Grandmothers Wake. It Takes ALOT to make me cry. This was one of those ALOTS. Thanks for the Video.
I am planning my funeral so that my family will not have to deal with all the emotions of doing it. I am creating a cd with my favorite songs, and "Go rest high on that mountain" is my favorite. I am terminally ill, and only God knows how much time I have left. Thank you for sharing this song on youtube. I can hear the choir in the background because I have listen to this so much. You do an amazing job singing this.
Rest In Peace Grandpa Jerry 9/13/09

This is absolutely beautiful, James, and such a moving version. It is fitting to do a song that BillyRay encouraged you to do that is also perfect for a memorial. RIP, dear BillyRay. --Jan

This is such a beautiful and truthful song. You did a great job. I had played at my dearly, beloved Mimmy's memorial service on August 21, 2008. And oh how I cried when she died on August 19, 2008. She was 89. Thanks. May my sweet dearly, beloved Mimmy go rest high on that mountain and go to Heaven ashouting.

The First time I heard this was Yesterday at my Loving Grandmothers Wake. It Takes ALOT to make me cry. This was one of those ALOTS. Thanks for the Video.

I am planning my funeral so that my family will not have to deal with all the emotions of doing it. I am creating a cd with my favorite songs, and "Go rest high on that mountain" is my favorite. I am terminally ill, and only God knows how much time I have left. Thank you for sharing this song on youtube. I can hear the choir in the background because I have listen to this so much. You do an amazing job singing this.
God bless, and thank you
