I like the one at 0.17 :)

IslamPlague, I think my Dad actually sang in the one in .51. I found it on the internet a few days ago.

You don't hear hymns like this in church anymore. When they brought in the drums and electric guitars along with nonsensical rock/Christian lyrics, I stopped going. That's been a long time and since then my faith has vanished. Yet, there still is a hole in my heart where my faith once was. It is gone forever even if beautiful music should return to churches. I think I speak for many thousands if not millions of people.

The best song and the best voice.

My brother loved this man. Occasionally played backup for him at the Grand Ole Opry. Hit my brother hard when he died. He named one of his sons after Mr. Reeves. We just call him Jimmy. And yes, Mr. Reeves thought quite a lot of my brother. It does my heart good to be able to hear Mr. Reeves sing this beautiful hymn. My Mama went home in '98 at the age of 89 and it still hurts so bad and she, too, was weary.

@zeekwolfe Unfortunately churches seem to be more "business-like" now more than ever. Most of the people that really made a difference in my life growing up in the church has since passed away and this modern way is very difficult to adjust to in the church. Although I am not a bible thumper, it is my belief that your "faith" is between you and God, not you and the church.

Still listening to Jim and his beautiful voice and Godly songs. I suffer from Chronic Arthritis, Recovered from a stroke and have Fibro Myalgia. Sleep apnea is the result. I use Jim and his songs to help me overcome the pain. I love his voice such a gentle man and very humble he was. Blessings Jim. Rev Jack
