You are right Stacy, we were regularly played on Reverend Mull's tv show. ....Mark

The cars changed from a GM to Ford because we borrowed a GM from a dealership, we needed a convertible, then another car hit it after 1 day of filming, totaled it, we had to get as close as we could to the 1st car and found the Ford to finish filming. That is my father and some of Loreen's family in the church scene. good catch on all of the above, thanks for writing. ....Mark Payne

You are welcome Reggie; Reggie was the best harmonica and utility player that any group could have hoped for, he was truly a blessing to have as part of our band and funny to be around, love ya man. ....Mark Payne

The "concept" videos we made were:

"I'm A Jesus Fan"

"The Good Shepherd"

"Walkin' The Streets"

"God Wants You"

We also did a Photo Montage Video called "Nothing can Hold Me Here" and we did two out-take, blooper, life on the road videos called "Under New Management" and "Heavenly Express". I hope this helps.

Thank you, I remember when we debuted the video at The National Quartet Convention and the crowds we got at our booth to watch it, the 1st Southern Gospel video that told a story just like MTV. Word Records flew me and my brother Mike to Nashville to pick my brain on how we did it, it was fun times, I have always felt that God deserved our best and it was important that we used whatever medium we had to tell a touching, and sometimes funny story that would attract people to the Kingdom.....Mark

I was raised on the great southern gospel bands of this era. Nothing stirs your spirit like the annointing of such great songs like this one. Ima JESUS FAN! Everything I do, I do it for the glory of the Lord and thank him for the wisdom he has given me.

@paynesband Mike you helped me play my style in a lot of churches. My whole family got excited when we bought the album. We got it at the Roses store in Lexington, Va.. You and your family blessed millions of people and you really rocked the Wayesboro P.H. Church in 92. Of course 2 days later on my birthday, I had an appendicitis but I still was reeling from the feeling at that service and one in Stantoun. Lord bless you and your family.

I really Love the annointing of this old time gospel,I think people need a new time dose.in 8th grade I saw a video of your band on the Norm Livingston show doing im not gonna wait till judgment day, I decided to sing it in front of the school morning breakfast club with the help of the playing of a school counselor.Praise Jesus I believe someone was touched by that.

I am going to post this for my Pastor, James Wells. (Raceland Ky) He loves this song! I love it too!

When I was very young, my parents were good friends with the Payne family. After this song came out I cant remember me sing in front of alot of churches that my father would preach at. This is still one of my favorite songs!!!......Stacy Clere

I LOVE THE PAYNES THIS SONG REALLY TELLS THE TRUTH THEY ARE ALWAYS CROWDS AT BALL GAMES OR OTHER CONCERTS NOT GOSPEL OR ANYTHING TO DO WITH JESUS GOD BLEE ALL OF YOU REBA

This is the way we ought to feel. People spend way more on sports events than they do on His work. Thanks for the song!
