It does not get any better than this. I remember 6 years back or so when he was arrested for a DUI and all the non believers said ...another phony Christian. God forgives and and Glen found his way back. God bless you Mr. Campbell and all you care about. Much love Kansas.

What a beautiful song, so heartfelt and filled with personal truth.

Ol' boy's still got it, hasn't he! As celebrated as he is,I still contend Glen Campbell is among the greatly **underrated** talents of the past half century of music.One of the most emotive voices I've heard & one of the most gifted guitarists going. Saw him recently on the Ellen Show and Leno - whichever I saw first (don't remember), I came away sad. He didn't sound so great. When I saw him a day or two later on the other program he sounded terrific.And here as well!Lord, bless Glen Campbell!!

sorry tress is supposed to be trees

I wrote this for a man who died from this disease.. Ode to Alzheimer's .. It has long sinuous branches it reaches out and back recalling us to places we know. and the memories like leaves on tress fall away into decay. we struggle to regain them but they slip through our grasp like sand in a desert one breeze and they are gone. Till we meet again at childhoods door. Bereft of today, Stuck in yesterday with no road before us except heaven's sweet embrace.

When does being human with all of it's weaknesses mean one is not, cannot be a Christian. Yes, Glen has fought his weaknesses. He done his best, and I am sure that he will be judge by Christ, not by the 'so-called' Christians running around on earth. I've always believe that if a person has to tell someone that they are Christian, then maybe they are lacking something. Live so that your life, your actions state that you are a Christian. Which includes the act of repentance.

This brings tears to my eyes everytime I hear it.

This is one of the best tunes he's done - ever. Very nice. I honestly didn't expect anything this good. Thank you for sharing this.

@jmallen1962 Not so much non-believers as disbelievers, I'd say. I'm a non-believer, but I understand the concept of holding oneself to a certain standard and sometimes failing without being a hypocrite. Disbelievers don't really understand what the word "hypocrite" means.

grew up listening to him and always thought he was amazing,still do.. whatever happened in his personal life, is just that, HIS personal life, nobody is perfect.

I've always liked Glen Campbell....I met him in 1986 in arkansas just passing through at the time...Stop to check on an old friend and guess who walks in the studio during a recording session...Glen Campbell...We talked for over an hour and he certainly left a great impression that I still remember.
